Long Summer Days - Gary Allan

When I close my eyes she is sitting there

Deep blue denim, Sunkist hair

Feet dangling from the dock, calling me by name

Well before we knew it we was jumping in

Way deeper than we’ve ever been

Then making our way to sweet spot under the shade

Every time I go down on the river

And watch those ripples wash away

I can’t help but curse September for stealing her away

Cause the memories just don’t fade like those long summer days.

(oh yeah)

Yeah we were laying the low

The moon was getting high

Yankee Doodle Dandy and American Pie

I was stoking the fire and the heat was coming on strong

Yeah we were popping tops and telling tales

Strumming my guitar, lord it never fails

We were there all night, but it didn’t take long

Every time I go down on the river

And watch those ripples wash away

I can’t help but curse September for stealing her away

Cause the memories just don’t fade like those long summer days

I can’t rewind the days I know

But if I could thats where I’d go

Every time I go down on the river

And watch those ripples wash away

I can’t help but curse September for stealing her away

The memories just don’t fade like those long summer days

Like those long, long summer days

Yeah we were laying low the moon was getting high

Long, long summer days
