lyrics

Sometimes in the summer
When the sea billows roll
And the river runs rowdy and reckless through the valley sweet clear and cold
Chasing the daylight– out on 75, through broken thoughts and Little pieces of song

The swiftly fallen walls of a wandering mind become a room for receiving ghosts
Ooooooooooh lonely one
Ooooooooh

If only the dark with its long and open arms would welcome me as a friend
Id close my eyes beneath these southern skies and rest in peace till the The nighttime’s end
Ooooooh lonely one
Oooooooooh crying in the dark

Oh Georgia, Georgia, Heaven help you
It’s been a long time coming

Sometimes in the summer
Where the land starts to swell
in the company of glowing road signs that hold the night like sentinels
Out in the window
At the edge of the soul
The mountains edge built of hardened Clay
Their red sand lit all alone by the lamps now Variations on black and gray
Oooooooh lonely one

Caffeine filled out from here onto Gainesville
Hummmm fluorescent station light
The friends that might appear at the brink of tomorrow
Bring uneasy comfort at night

Ooooooh lonely one
Ooooooh crying in the night
