a little more summertime

they're boarding up this water town

ain't nobody hanging 'round

another gray september day

was i crazy to think she'd stay

if that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer

if those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet on the beach 'stead of going out with the tide

if that wind was a friend it'd still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her

she might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only i

had a little more summertime

i brace myself against the cold

let her memory take hold

stirring that old fire up

as if i don't miss her enough

if that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer

if those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet on the beach 'stead of going out with the tide

if that wind was a friend it'd still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her

she might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only i

had a little more summertime

just a little more summertime

if that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer

she might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only i

had a little more summertime
