Summer Tongues Lyrics

Tear, Tear off your skin. What's there within?
Life on wooden swings when all was young
With summer tongues. I don't care to know
Who's been before. Oh, We could stand to run
Never look back at trains or tracks

You could disappear
You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London
Love you in France
Sunsets in Germany
Spain we can slow dance

Somewhere outside, somewhere outside
Somewhere outside, somewhere outside

Wake from lover's care in slumber's bed
Days in quiet homes when life was young
With summer tongues

You could disappear
You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London
Love you in France
Sunsets in Germany
Spain we can slow dance

Somewhere outside, Somewhere outside
Somewhere outside, Somewhere outside

You could disappear
You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London
Love you in France
Sunsets in Germany
Spain we can slow dance

Somewhere outside, somewhere outside
Somewhere outside, somewhere outside

And I'll kiss you in London
Love you in France
Sunsets in Germany
Spain we can slow dance

Somewhere outside, somewhere outside
Somewhere outside, somewhere outside

Tear, tear Off your skin Whats there within. Life on wooden swings When all was young, With summer tongues. I Don't care to know Who's been before. Oh we could stand to run Nev'r look back at trains or tracks

You could disappear You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London Love you in France Sunsets in Germany Spain we can slowdance, Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside

Wake From lover's kept, on slumbers bed Days in quiet'r homes When life was young, With summer tongues.

You could disappear You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London Love you in France Sunsets in Germany Spain we can slowdance, Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside

You could disappear You could disappear

And I'll kiss you in London Love you in France Sunsets in Germany Spain we can slowdance, Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside

And I'll kiss you in London Love you in France Sunsets in Germany Spain we can slowdance, Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside Somewhere outside

Oh my gosh, this song is sooo sweet. If you have the physical album, there's a really beautiful paragraph explaining this song, directed to his wife.

I didn't think he was married...he was engaged but I'm almost 100% sure they ended their engagement.

Tear, Tear off your skin, What's there within. Life on wooden swings When all was young With summer tongues, I don't (couldn't figure this out?) Whose been before, (On weekends spent around? couldn't figure these lines out either)

I think that its:

"I dont care to know, whose been before."
