The Decemberists - Summersong lyrics
[The Decemberists - Summersong lyrics]
I taste the summer on your peppery skin
Been saved the warm of the waves
I felt a slip into a watery grave
Oh oh oh, hoh, hoh
Lah-di dah-di dah ah, hah-hoh oho
My girl linen and curls
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled
She's grand the bend of her hand
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand
Oh oh oh, hoh, hoh
Lah-di dah-di dah ah, hah-hoh oho
And summer arrives with a length of lights
And summer blows away
And quietly, it 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 oh, hoh, hoh
Lah-di dah-di dah ah, hah-hoh oho
My girl linen and curls
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled
She's grand the bend of her hand
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand
Oh oh oh, hoh, hoh
Lah-di dah-di dah ah, hah-hoh oho
And summer arrives with a length of lights
And summer blows away
And quietly, it gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave
