Summertime - Acoustic version
came to this island with a longing need
found a young lady that could set me free
asked her friendly can you tell me your name
but she just smiled then laughed and walked away
I see a lot of men passing by
they think they're cute and that makes me smile
don't need your love I just need some wings
to get me going somewhere where I can be king
I see these babes much too young for me
slender legs and a lot of skin
I feel the lightness in the afternoon haze
but it so hard to find a parking space
I'll have a smoke then I'll check my phone
could be that what's up is calling home
I need a short break just to soothe my soul
I got eyes on my back so I'll keep it short
but don't forget about the magic in the air
if you listen to your heart you'll find a way
give me reason not a feeling of despair
you need patience just to get you going somewhere
I tell myself not to expect too much
but everybody wants to stay in touch
I like your tattoo and the way you move
so let's enjoy the sunshine and feel the groove
I work long hours just to pay the rent
don't speak of love this ain't heaven sent
don't have a car you'll find me on the bus
and when my workday's over I don't need to rush
but don't forget about the magic in the air
if you listen to your heart you'll find a way
give me reason not a feeling of despair
you need patience just to get you going somewhere
you will never know
about the truth that's in your soul
You can make things real
they keep on happening in your dreams
found a young lady that could set me free
asked her friendly can you tell me your name
but she just smiled then laughed and walked away
I see a lot of men passing by
they think they're cute and that makes me smile
don't need your love I just need some wings
to get me going somewhere where I can be king
I see these babes much too young for me
slender legs and a lot of skin
I feel the lightness in the afternoon haze
but it so hard to find a parking space
I'll have a smoke then I'll check my phone
could be that what's up is calling home
I need a short break just to soothe my soul
I got eyes on my back so I'll keep it short
but don't forget about the magic in the air
if you listen to your heart you'll find a way
give me reason not a feeling of despair
you need patience just to get you going somewhere
I tell myself not to expect too much
but everybody wants to stay in touch
I like your tattoo and the way you move
so let's enjoy the sunshine and feel the groove
I work long hours just to pay the rent
don't speak of love this ain't heaven sent
don't have a car you'll find me on the bus
and when my workday's over I don't need to rush
but don't forget about the magic in the air
if you listen to your heart you'll find a way
give me reason not a feeling of despair
you need patience just to get you going somewhere
you will never know
about the truth that's in your soul
You can make things real
they keep on happening in your dreams
