They boarded up this water town Ain't nobody hanging 'round Another grey September day Was I crazy to think she'd stay If that sun had just Hung up in that sky Just a little Just a little bit longer If those blue water waves Could've stayed at our feet Instead of going out with the tide If that wind was a friend It'd still be blowing in Like a warm southern whisper on her She might have stayed forever And never ever left these arms If only I Had a little more summertime I brace myself against the cold And let her memory take hold Stirring that old fire up As if I don't miss her enough If that sun had just Hung up in that sky Just a little Just a little bit longer If those blue water waves Could've stayed at her feet Instead of going out with the tide If that wind was a friend It'd still be blowing in Like a warm southern whisper on her She might have stayed forever And never ever left these arms If only I Had a little more summertime Just a little more summertime If that sun would have just Hung up in that sky Just a little Just a little bit longer She might have stayed forever And never ever left these arms If only I Had a little more summertime
