|
You've traveled the river
|
From end to end
|
Never found a true love
|
Anywhere you've been
|
Never broke a heart
|
That wouldn't mend
|
On such a lovely summer night
|
|
Hands in your pockets
|
As the band begins
|
Stand by the window
|
A touch of locust in the wind
|
This might be just one more town
|
You'll say you've been in
|
On such a lovely summer night
|
|
You take your chances
|
When you start to roam
|
Waiting for slow dances
|
Then you ask to walk her home
|
And if she says, Please stay
|
You'll say, I might
|
On such a lovely summer night
|
|
You hold her close, yeah
|
Look her in the eye
|
You make her laugh
|
Then sing that one song to make her cry
|
And maybe this is that one town
|
Where there's no goodbye
|
|
You take your chances
|
When you start to roam
|
Waiting for slow dances
|
Then you ask to walk her home
|
And if she says, Please stay
|
You'll say, I might
|
On such a lovely summer night
|
