The Summer I Read Collette Lyrics - Rosanne Cash

(Rosanne Cash) 

That was the summer that followed the spring 

The sad anniversary of a thousand old things 

I was letting them go 

The words of Collette and a strange new perfume 

The drenching my senses and filling the room 

The heat from my body is the light in our eyes 

Word is surrender and then we can fly 

We were letting it go 

We are blinded to the beauty in our own lives 

The hours taken are all that we'll get 

For five or six hours in the month of July 

The summer I read Collette

The time were align and we learnt how to crawl 

The bones were prison and memory of old 

A word from the past I feel nothing at all 

And now I'm letting it go 

It's more than survival the lesson I have learnt 

When I found salvation quite a surprise 

That was the summer that followed the spring 

A new way of feeling a million and one things 

We are blinded to the beauty in our own lives 

The hours taken are all that we'll get 

For five or six hours in the month of July 

The summer I read Collette 

I found Paris a hundred years late 

Calling it sleeping in (...) 

My ear to the stone I can hear her sing (...) 

I sold my silver to get myself there 

To a room with a candle up three flights of stairs 

That was the summer I let it all go 

Filling my body with my heart and soul
