Sometimes In The Summer Lyrics

Sometimes in the summer, where the sea billows roll

And the river runs rowdy and reckless

Through the valley, sweet, clear, and cold

Chasing the daylight out on seventy-five,

Through broken thoughts, little pieces of song

The swiftly falling walls of a wandering mind

Become a room for receiving ghosts

Ooh, lonely one

Ooh, crying in the night

If only the dark with its long and open arms

Would welcome me as a friend

I'd close my eyes beneath these southern skies

And rest in peace till the nighttime's end

Ooh, lonely one

Ooh, crying in the night

Georgia, Georgia, heaven help you

Georgia, Georgia, heaven help you

It's been a long time coming

Sometimes in the summer,

Where the land starts to swell

In the company of glowing road signs,

Hold the night like sentinels

Out in the window, at the edge of the soul,

The mountain's edge built of hardened clay

Their red sand lit all alone by the lamps,

Now variations on black and grey

Ooh, lonely one

Ooh, crying in the night

Caffeine filled out from here on to Gainesville,

Hum fluorescent station lights

The friends that might appear at the brink of tomorrow

Bring uneasy comfort at night

Ooh, lonely one

Ooh, crying in the night

Georgia, Georgia, heaven help you

Women's rights are human rights

Georgia, Georgia, heaven help you

It's been a long time coming
