Summer Night Lyrics - Mark Erelli

You've traveled the river from end to end 

Never found a true love anywhere you've been 

You never broke a heart that wouldn't mend 

On such a lovely summer night 

Your hands' in your pockets as the band begin 

Stand by the window, a touch of locust in the wind 

And this might be just one more town you'll say you've been in 

On such a lovely summer night 

You take your chances when you start to roam 

Waiting for slow dances and you ask to walk her home 

And if she says please stay, you'll say, "I might" 

On such a lovely summer night 

You hold her close, yeah, and look her in the eye 

You make her laugh then sing that one song to make her cry 

And maybe this is that one town where there's no goodbye 

On such a lovely summer night
