Summersong Lyrics

by The Decemberists

Ramblin', where to begin?
I taste the summer on your peppery skin
Been saved, the warmer the waves
I felt us slip into a watery grave, oh oh
Ah-ha-oh
La-di-da-da-da
Ah-ha-ha-oh-oh

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e77529-the_decemberists~summersong_lyrics.html ]
My girl, linen and curls
Lips parting like a flag will unfurl
She's grand, the bend of her hand
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand, oh oh
Ah-ha-oh
La-di-da-da-da
Ah-ha-ha-oh-oh

And summer arrives (ba-ba ba ba)
With a length of lights (ba-ba ba ba)
And summer blows away
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave

Waylay the din of the day
Boats bobbing in the blue of the bay
In deep, far beneath
All the dead sailors slowly slipping to sleep, oh oh
Ah-ha-oh
La-di-da-da-da
Ah-ha-ha-oh-oh

My girl, linen and curls
Lips parting like a flag will unfurl
She's grand, the bend of her hand
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand, oh oh
Ah-ha-oh
La-di-da-da-da
Ah-ha-ha-oh-oh

And summer arrives (ba-ba ba ba)
With a length of lights (ba-ba ba ba)
And summer blows away
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
