Caught a tangle of thorns
Flat white light
Threw shadows on the garden
And I stood in the moonlight at midnight
In the window-light by the blackberry bushes
And my heart had hardened
To the summer time
Oh that summer time
And I can hear a bottle bursting open
On the tile inside the house
Everywhere you went that summer
I was sure to go
We ruined one and other
Blow by sticky blow
But if you don't blink soon
Your eyeball's going to explode
Slept through magic hour
In a tarpit dream
There were eyes in the trees
And so I begged your pardon
And you faced me in the moonlight
You faced me at midnight
My stomach had gone
And my heart had hardened
To the summer time
Oh that summer time
And I can hear them dancing, cheering
Drinking, singing happy in there
Everywhere you went that summer
I was sure to go
We ruined one and other
Blow by sticky blow
But if you don't blink soon
Your eyeball's going to fall out
Everywhere you went that summer
I was sure to go
We ruined one and other
Blow by sticky blow
But if you don't blink soon
