Frontier Ruckus - If the Summer lyrics

rate me

Oh, if the summer

Leafy screens

Of the undersides of bushes

Took me in like time machines

I’d crawl out

Red-faced

2006

And set my mind to find you

Inside the library bricks

And with your date-stamper

You’d brand my hand

I’m the nervous camper

Who would happily choke on the woodsmoke

To lie next to you where you woke

In the sand

Oh, what a bummer

Not to re-begin

Not to have a sunburn

Marrying the sum of our skin

And in some very small rooms

Where we’d sweat through the sheets

I’d curse the hour that it all blooms

And just pray to God it repeats

M.A.C. and Elizabeth

Sweating through the

Sheets with

A memory and a myth

The balcony of Meredith’s

Apartment

Blinded my eye sockets to the

Sight of Marian

The youngest memories burst

Like a sun

In the hot black night I

Found my contrarian

If any girl is cursed

She’s the one

And I am the curse

I am the worst

Oh, if the summer

Lake and pool

Cease to make my body

Feel so young and cool

For I’ve been burned so badly

In the worst way

By squandering so sadly

By being cruel

In that way<br />

<br />
