A Little More Summertime

They're boarding up this water town

Ain't nobody hanging 'round

Another gray September day

Was I crazy to think she'd stay?

If that sun would've just hung up in that sky

Just a little bit, yeah, just a little bit longer

If those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet

On the beach 'stead 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

Let her memory take hold

Stirring that old fire up

As if I don't miss her enough

If that sun would've just hung up in that sky

Just a little bit, yeah, just a little bit longer

If those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet

On the beach 'stead 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've just hung up in that sky

Just a little bit, yeah, just a little bit longer

She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I

Had a little more summertime
