Summertime came to Sycamore Street. They were seventeen and crazy from the heat. Full moon filled the Mississippi sky. That was their first time. . Silhouettes danced on the living room wall.
I'm hearin' voices. Telling me this time it's true. But I've got no choice in. What my heart is gonna do. . Fallin', never thought I would. Fallin', never thought it'd feel this good.
