summerville - rissi palmer lyrics
[verse 1]
running barefooted through the summertime
white sheet drying on an old clothesline
you’d say, “child wash your feet before you come inside to eat”
i’d show up at the start of june
august always came too soon
as we’d pull away in our four door
you’d stand crying on your front porch
[pre*chorus]
oh*ahh, highland avenue
ooh, i left too soon
[chorus]
it’d take 20 years and a few left turns
to get me back to where you were
when love was still in summerville
i shed a tear and crack a smile
when i let my mind wander down that country mile
wherе love is real in summervillе
[verse 2]
you’d take ham bone and flat green beans
turn a bare cupboard into a feast
if we didn’t have nothing you couldn’t tell me
you always had my cherry ice cream
you raised us all on kisses and honey
jesus and switches, stretching money
you knew god and you gave him to us
we had you so we knew love
[pre*chorus]
oh*ahh, highland avenue
ooh, i left too soon
[chorus]
it’d take 20 years and a few left turns
to get me back to where you were
when love was still in summerville
i shed a tear and crack a smile
when i let my mind wander down that country mile
where love is real in summerville
[bridge]
there’s an overgrown field where your flowers grew
there’s a house but there’s no you, you
[pre*chorus]
oh*ahh, highland avenue
ooh, i’m missing you
[chorus]
it took 20 years and a few left turns
to get me back to where you were
when love was still in summerville
i shed a tear and crack a smile
when i let my mind wander down that country mile
my heart is still in summerville
[outro]
la*la*la, la*la*la, la*la*la*la
la*la*la, la*la*la
my heart is still in summerville
one day i’m coming home
oh, i love you, i love you (in summerville)
no matter where i go
my heart is still in summerville
la*la*la, la*la*la, la*la*la*la
la*la*la, la*la*la
oh, my heart is still in summerville
