Out of Summertime

It's the Duquoin, Illinois'
County Fair
I can still see her
standing there
like a dream
Flat bed stage on a little
dirt track
she was 2nd row, her hair
pulled back
we were young and free
Oh, she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
Spent a few weeks out on a
lake shore beach
we carved our names
high as we could reach
on an old wooden pier
we made plans, we planned to keep
300 miles from her to me
and her senior year
Oh, she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
And of all the things I let get away
She's the one that keeps me
awake at night
And I've never seen days
go by so fast
a little more sand falling
through the glass
she was hot as july,
sweet as sunshine
Oh she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
If the days had only
stayed that long
and those autmn leaves
didn't have to fall
oh, we'd a fell in love
And what we felt on that
ferris wheel
was just too right and
just too real
but just not long enough
Oh, she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
And of all the things I let get away
she's the one that keeps me
awake at night
and i've never seen days
go by so fast
a little more sand falling
through the glass
she was hot as july
sweet as sunshine
oh, she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
And of all the things I let get away
she's the one that keeps me
awake at night
and i've never seen days
go by so fast
a little more sand falling
through the glass
sweet as sunshine
And of all the things I let get away
she's the one that keeps me
awake at night
and i've never seen days
go by so fast
a little more sand falling
through the glass
she was hot as july
sweet as sunshine
Oh she could've been mine
but we ran out of summertime
