Slow Summer Night Lyrics by Buck Johnson

Enjoying the Ride

2016

[Verse 1]
Well, there were times they called me crazy
Well, I guess I've always been
Tearing the road up and turning in circles
Driving myself out of my skin
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a lesson that I have learned
To be proud of the scars that I have earned
[Chorus]
As the lights go out in Nashville
And the darkness brings some peace
I sit in my pick-up and look at the stars
In a night filled with memories
And the sound of a silver eagle
Is a song I will one day write
It rolls on past and life goes by fast
So I'm grateful for the slow summer night
[Verse 2]
Well, I tried to keep it simple
Do my best and go on home
No, lullabies and no excuses
When your name is all you really own
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a reason for everything
And that's the reason why I sing
[Chorus]
As the lights go out in Nashville
And the darkness brings some peace
I sit in my pick-up and look at the stars
In a night filled with memories
And the sound of a silver eagle
Is a song I will one day write
It rolls on past and life goes by fast
So I'm grateful for the slow summer night
[Bridge]
Slow summer night
And the temperature rising
Slow summer night
And the time stands still
I feel the warm wind blow
Like it did so long again
In a place where I belong
And I always will
[Chorus]
As the lights go out in Nashville
And the darkness brings some peace
I sit in my pick-up and look at the stars
In a night filled with memories
And the sound of a silver eagle
Is a song I will one day write
It rolls on past and life goes by fast
So I'm grateful for the slow summer night
It rolls on past and life goes by fast
So I'm grateful for the slow summer night
Oh, yeah, slow summer night
