lyrics

Shadows of the Summertime grow long and lovely like a woman you can hardly hold / The shadows of the Summertime groan like a lover to me / I was hoping later we'd meet at a party that the both of us were dying to leave / Take a little drive beneath the planets, stars, the moon and the trees

Don't let go / You're my strongest hold / And I can't hold on forever / Unless you're holding on to me

I found out at a rock n roll show that I'll never be a card in the hand that you fold / Yeah I pushed my chips in, laid out all my money / It was easy for me / So don't shake me up / Don't wake me up, please / I'm just sleepwalking in America's dream / Waited on the river card to take me all the way to the sea

Don't let go / You're my strongest hold / And I can't hold on forever / Unless you're holding on to me

Don't let go / You're my strongest hold / And I can't hold on forever
