Sweet Summer
He had a freezer full of bomb pops
Push ups, drum sticks and dreamcicles
And a paint chipped change box
Full of sticky quarters, dimes and nickles
It was automatic when we heard that song
Run home and get your money before hes gone
Lookin underneath the chrysler in the driveway
Hey, dad what ya doin
The smell of summer twilight
Theres always somebody barbequen
Truth or dare with the kdis on our road
Hide and seek till your mama called you home
Chorus
Sweet summer, yeah I remember that
Sweet summer, let me take you back
Her mom and mine were best friends
And she was the youngest of three daughters
An angel on a pink schwinn, my first crush
Those days were never too long
And never too hot
Even though I was out of school
I was learnin a lot
Chorus
Bridge
Theres not a day that I dont remember
From the end of may to the first of september

Summer Of Love
Exotic cars scream down the sunset of dreams
On a hot sunny afternoon
Im in a hot dog stand
With a strange love holding my hand
And were both playin it real cool
Chorus:
Its the summer of love
Its the summer of love, baby
Its the summer of love
Leastways, Im hopin it is
So we talk about her favorite movie star or something
She says, ya know, Ive never done this before (yeah, sure)
I know it sounds strange, but I cant remember your name
But I remember last night on the floor
And we both laughed like she told a joke or something
She takes her neckerchief off and wraps it around my head
And says, hey, you
Chorus:
Its the summer of love
Its the summer of love, baby
Its the summer of love
Leastways, Im hopin it is
Its the summer of love
Its the summer of love, baby
Its the summer of love
Leastways, Im hopin it is
So we both walk along alone
She says, hey, mister, you sure make a strange kind of lover
And I say yeah
I say yeah
Chorus:
Its the summer of love
Its the summer of love, baby
Its the summer of love
Leastways, Im hopin it is

Endless Summer Nights
Summer came and left without a warning
All at once I looked and you were gone
And now youre looking back at me
Searching for a way that we can be like we were before
Now Im back to what I knew before you
Somehow the city doesnt look the same
Id give my life for one more night
Of having you here to hold me tight; oh, please
Take me there again
Oh, oh
Chorus
And I remember how you loved me
Time was all we had until the day we said goodbye
I remember every moment of those endless summer nights
I still recall the walks along the beaches
And the way your hair would glisten in the sun
Rising in the afternoon
Making love to you under the moon, oh
Do you remember all the nights we spent in silence
Every single breath you took was mine
We can have it all again
Say that youll be with me when the sun brings your heart to mine
Oh, oh
Repeat chorus
Theres only so much I can say
So please dont run away from what we have together
Its only you and me tonight
So lets stay lost in flight
Oh, wont you please surrender

Sweet Home Alabama
(Original by Lynyrd Skynard)
Big wheels keep on turning carry me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the southland
I miss my family once again and I think it's a sin
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her
Well I heard Ol' Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow
CHORUS:
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama Lord I'm coming home to you
In Birmingham they love the governor boo-hoo-hoo
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you tell me true
CHORUS:
Here I come Alabama
SOLO
Now Muscle Shoals has got the swampers, they've been known to pick a song or two
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feelin' blue
Now how about you
CHORUS:
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue oh sweet home
Sweet home Alabama Lord I'm coming home to you And the gov'nor's true
Sweet home Alabama where the skies are so blue oh yeah

Chance Meeting At The Tarantula
Hey, dont I know you from somewhere
Yeah, it was down in new orleans
In one of those back-street bars in the quarter
Between desire and honalee
You were dancin with a friend of michaels
I remember how we met
You were talkin to ol jimmy
And you lit my cigarette
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?
This is me youre talkin to
From may through september
It was all about me n you, baby
It was all about me n you
Well it looks like to me
That you have conveniently forgotten everything
This confusion that has surrounded you
Is this your morality and not your brain
Youve got a birthmark below your navel
You wear a size seven and a half shoe
You got this rolex watch that I suspect you cobbed
From that doctor who said he loved you
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?
This is me youre talkin to
From may through september
It was all about me n you, baby
It was all about me n you
Well you told me that you lived in the wind
Like a bird who never touched the ground
And if you did you would surely die without making a sound
Live, lets live, thats all you kept sayin
And our summer was full of life
Were gonna send them a postcard, and show em what its like to be alive
But I never wanted to leave your side
No, I just couldnt believe that youd lie
No, I never wanted to say good-bye baby
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?

Make Believe
Chorus:
Why dont we make believe were in love again
Who said the crimson moon doesnt shine
Where do people go when theyre lookin for that one of a kind
Why dont we make believe that were sorry
Why must we hold it all inside
Where do lovers go when theyre runnin and theres no place to hide
Always remember - the day we met in the foreign rain
You were content and - we went our seperate ways
No matter which way the wind blows now, hang on to it anyhow
Dont ever say it could never be the same
Chorus
Always remember - holding hands on a summer day
You were content ob das stimmt? ? and - you took it all away
I didnt come here to change your mind, lead you on and waste your time
All alone in the evening, gettin blue
Why dont we make believe

You Take Me Home
I was blinded by the city lights
LA livin' up the crazy life
Lookin' back on how far I'd come
Not quite sure what I was runnin' from
A million miles away from the world I knew
Who'd ever thought it'd lead me back to you...
Chorus
You take me to front porch swings
Mama singin "Cheatin' Heart"
Yeah what a rush
Catchin' lightnin bugs in a mason jar
You take me to county fairs
Bedtime prayers
Old wooden rockin' chairs
And all the things I loved I thought were gone
You take me home
You take me home
Took awhile to finally come around
And separate all that was lost and found
If there's one thing by now I better know
The grass ain't greener where it doesn't grow
I needed someone who would love me like you do
To lead me back to the simple truth
(repeat chorus)
Summer heat
Life's so sweet
And dancin' on daddy's feet
And all the things I loved I thought were gone
You take me home
You take me home
You take me home

Home Of The Brave
Everythings gonna be alright boys, help is on the way
Hold your head up high now, theres no need to cry now
Were not running anymore
Leave the politics behind boys, theyre not working anymore
Theres so much more at stake here, its make or break here
Havent we been here before - tell me what were waiting for
Chorus:
You gotta remember, you dont have to be afraid
You still have the freedom to learn, and say what you wanna say
You gotta remember, dont let em take away
The land we call the home of the brave
Who sings the song of the people, you dont hear it anymore
I heard it late last summer, to the beat of a different drummer
It never sounded quite like that before
So youre trying to shake this feeling, that troubles right outside the door
You lie awake each dark night, like a time bomb wound up too tight
A storm in waiting, just offshore - tell me what were waiting for

Holding on to each other

When a dozen red roses came my way
Warmed up my heart

Feels like your kiss

To smell the sweet perfume
Reminds me so much of you
Theres nothing else that I can do

I know our two hearts are strong

But long distance loving is
Leaving me to dream of your kiss

The Road Home
Full moon risin' over Atlanta
And I'm fourteen stories high
Lookin' down on a street full of people
Just like bees in a hive
Lord sometimes I feel just like a number
Like somebody lost my name
I just couldn't wait to get here to the city
Now I can't remember why I came
Chorus:
And the road home keeps on gettin' longer
Old friends and yesterday's are further away
And that old home grown felling's gettin' stronger
Sayin' I'm gonna be a goner if I don't go back someday
Cattails growin' down by the river
So crystal clear in my mind
And there's a song that I still remember
Sung by the wind in the pines
Lord the people ain't never in a hurry
Ain't never bothered by time
They just take their troubles and all of their worries
And hang 'em on the end of a fishin' line

Sayin' I'm gonna be a goner if I don't go back someday

Pure Simple
(j. van zant, e. king, r. johnson, m. lunn)
I used to live in a poor neighborhood
My friends and me we always had a time
Never had no money but we had it so good
Those days are gone and I wanna go back
So pure so simple
Never thought about it when youre young you dont care
You dont realize it till its all behind
Take it for granted just not well
(chorus)
Oh-oh it was pure and simple
Ill remember those days till the end
Oh-oh God knows its simple
If I could live my life all over again
Id keep it pure and simple
Those days are gone and I wanna go back
Got me a feelin Im not alone
Wish I had a road so I could go back home

Autumn Goodbye
Chorus: I never promised you a happy ending
You never said you wouldnt make me cry
But summer love will keep us warm long after
Our autumn goodbye, autumn goodbye
Autumn goodbye
Thinkin of you
And the love of our lives
In the sweet summertime
So sad but true (so true, so true)
We must leave it behind
In our hearts, in our minds
Pre chorus: from april through september
Bittersweet was the love that we share
Dont forget
I remember
Repeat chorus (2x)
Memories can fade
But my heart has a place
For the smile on your face
And maybe someday
We can be more than friends
Love will find us again
Red leaves and blue tomorrows
Time will give back the love that we shared
On the time that we borrowed
Repeat chorus (2x)

Well leave behind

Our hearts, our minds
They will remind
We wont forget
The day we met
The day we cried

When Im livin without you

Baby dont you see
Id never do you harmin, no

Waiting for your love
You better make your choice now
Before a push comes to a shove
Yeah things seem kinda different
It aint the way it was
Remember what your mama said
The bond that lies is us
Chorus
Im by the phone, Im all alone
Just waitin and a prayin that maybe youll call
I gotta know right now, should I stay around, should I stay a while
Should I stand here crying or baby should I fly - yeah!

Shes so far away
