Jewel Of The Summertime
When I was eighteen
I didn't know pain when the sun was high
Burnt faced, shadows erased
And I knew I'd be alright
Left that behind me (Uh-huh)
Something blinded me (Uh-huh)
That reminded me (Uh-huh)
Of a better space and time
Miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
When I turned twenty-one
I saw the sun pulling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouettes
Stumbling in the night
But we collided (Uh-huh)
And I finally (Uh-huh)
Got a light on me (Uh-huh)
Now I'm bathing in the bright
Ultra-violet rays
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Time, time, time
I left that behind me (Uh-huh)
And something blinded me (Uh-huh)
Yeah reminded me (Uh-huh)
Of a better space and time
Miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer- time
I didn't know pain when the sun was high
Burnt faced, shadows erased
And I knew I'd be alright
Left that behind me (Uh-huh)
Something blinded me (Uh-huh)
That reminded me (Uh-huh)
Of a better space and time
Miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
When I turned twenty-one
I saw the sun pulling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouettes
Stumbling in the night
But we collided (Uh-huh)
And I finally (Uh-huh)
Got a light on me (Uh-huh)
Now I'm bathing in the bright
Ultra-violet rays
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Time, time, time
I left that behind me (Uh-huh)
And something blinded me (Uh-huh)
Yeah reminded me (Uh-huh)
Of a better space and time
Miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer- time
