Jewel of the Summertime
When I was 18 I didn't know pain when the sun was high
Burnt face, shadow's erased and I knew I'd be alright
Left that behind me,
Somethin' blinded me,
You're reminding me,
Of a better space and time, miles away
The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
When I turned 21 I saw the sun pulling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouettes stumbling in the night
Then we collided,
And I finally,
Got the light on me,
Now I'm bathing in the bright ultraviolet rays
Jewel of the summertime [Repeat: x3]
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
Time, time
I left that behind me,
But somethin' blinded me,
You're reminding me,
Of a better space and time, miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time [Repeat: x5]
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
Jewel of the summertime [Repeat: x3]
