Iron & Wine - Everyone's Summer of '95 lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

They heard a car sputter way too soon

Me and the boys from the billiards room found a shady tree

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

Casey was asked for his favorite joke

Fluttered away just before he spoke but he came to me

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

(Chorus)

All I can tell u is how we spent the time

Friends are made in the strangest ways

And I’ll miss them by and by

(Verse 2)

Late in the day and the dust kicked up

Me and the boys with the windows shut & the music on

Halfway home and goin' nowhere, everyone's summer of 95

Vivid and there till the tape had died on our favorite song

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

Hitchin' a ride with a crusty girl

Me and the boys stole a tie dye shirt & a kiss or two

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

Casey mixed words with the mud flap guy

Smothered and bruised in the neon lights & we all went down

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

Back on our feet and the car backs in

Me and the boys at the billiards room comin' back on beer

Halfway home & goin' nowhere

Casey will crack up, a fight broke lose

I’m in the back thinkin' I must choose but I like it here

Halfway home & goin' nowhere
