| I remember when Maggie said your head caved in
|
| The first time we heard «Mad Dogs and Englishmen»
|
| We laid on the hood feeling absolutely bulletproof
|
| Ah but I was a ghost that you were reliving
|
| Way back then we were gone right out of our heads
|
| But August was red hot and Georgia was steamin'
|
| We were all revved up about everything
|
| Wild like a hurricane inside her arms
|
| I don’t know when it all went cold
|
| Broken down, shaking by the side of the road
|
| They always told me there were storms inside my room
|
| Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues
|
| Then she came from a million miles away
|
| She hid from the heavy rain deep in Manhattan
|
| But now it’s quiet, let the sleeping dogs lie tonight
|
| Maybe you and I we can live forever
|
| Way back then we never ever went to bed
|
| We just stayed up all night to see what would happen
|
| We were all revved up about everything
|
| Wild like a hurricane inside her arms
|
| I don’t know when it all went cold
|
| Broken down, shaking on the side of the road
|
| They always told me there were storms inside my room
|
| Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues
|
| So have you seen her down by the water
|
| Driving us crazy in the half black moon
|
| So have you seen her float on the water
|
| In the heat of June
|
| We were all revved up about everything
|
| Wild like a hurricane inside her arms
|
| I can’t be sure if it was more or just some spell we were under
|
| I must have dreamed you up inside my room
|
| Oh and honey I remember everything
|
| With a memory wide as a country mile
|
| You don’t know, you don’t know how it feels to be me
|
| I was born with rain inside my shoes
|
| Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues
|
| Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues |
