Blue Rodeo - Summer Girls Lyrics

Summer girls they sure are fun
Get so golden in the sun
That they could block out any other thought
Dry your eyes and turn away
Cause there's nothing we can say
Cause we were never meant to talk a lot

And no I can't do this anymore
No I've lost the feeling
Better to be sad right now
Than later send my whole world reeling
I want something more
Than to watch you walking out my summer door

Hearts so hard to understand
Sinking slowly in the sand
They make you do the things you'd never do
Feel your mouth get desert dry
And you start to wonder why
You feel a chill when she stands next to you

And no I can't do this anymore
No I've lost the reason
Better to just hang my head
And wait here for another season
I want you to stay
After all the summer girls have gone away

There's no time left to wonder anymore
I got memories to last the whole year long
Just like the sun leaves you staring at the sky
After it's gone

Summer girls they sure are fun
Get so golden in the sun
That you could barely stand to look at them

And no I can't do this anymore
No I've lost the feeling
Better to be sad right now
Than later send my whole world reeling
I want you to stay
After all the summer girls have gone away
I need to know
That you will still be here after the others go
I need the one
Who will walk with me in fall when summer's gone
When summer's gone
