In The Summertime Lyrics by Bahamas

Live To Tape: Volume II

2021

[Verse 1]
I was in your presence for an hour or so
Or was it a day? I truly don't know
Where the sun never set, where the trees hung low
By that soft and shining sea
Did you respect me for what I did?
Or did I lose my mind when I tried to get rid?
Did I lose my mind when I tried to get hid
From everything you see?
[Chorus]
In the summertime (Summertime)
Woah, in the summertime
In the summertime (Summertime)
When you were with me
[Verse 2]
I got the heart and you got the blood
We cut through iron and we cut through mud
But then came the storm before the flood
That set everybody free
Fools, they made a mock of sin
Our loyalty, they tried to win
But you were closer to me than my next of kin
They didn’t want to know or see
[Chorus]
In the summertime (Summertime)
Oh, in the summertime
In the summertime (Summertime)
When you were with me
[Verse 3]
Strangers meddled in our affairs
And poverty and shame was theirs
But all that was not to be compared
With the glory that is to be
And I'm still carrying that gift you gave
It's a part of me now, it’s been cherished and saved
And it will be with me until the grave
And into eternity
[Chorus]
In the summertime (Summertime)
Oh, in the summertime
In the summertime (Summertime)
When you were with me
In the summertime (Summertime)
Woah, in the summertime
In the summertime (Summertime)
When you were with me
