High Summer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
By the mansion on the hillside
Red sports car comes driving down the road
And pulls up into the driveway
And a story does unfold

[Verse 2]
She's standing by the rhododendrons
Where the roses are in bloom
Looking out at the Atlantic Ocean
And in her head she hums this tune

[Verse 3]
Thank God the dark nights are drawing in again
'Cause high summer has got me down
I'll wait till the end of August
And get off this merry-go-round

[Verse 4]
And they shut him out of paradise
Called him Lucifer and frowned
She took pride in what God made him
Even before the angels shot him down to the ground

[Verse 5]
He's a light out of the darkness
And he wears a starry crown
If you see him, nothing will shake him
'Cause high summer has got him low down

[Bridge]
High summer's got him lonesome
Even when he makes the rounds, makes the rounds
There's been no two ways about it
High summer's got him low down

[Verse 6]
Checked in to the tiny village by the lakeside
Settled down to start anew
Far away from the politicians
And the many chosen few

[Verse 7]
Far away from the jealousy factor
And everything that was tearing him apart
Far away from the organ grinder
And everyone that played their part

[Verse 8]
And they shut him out of paradise
Called him Lucifer and frowned
'Cause he took pride in what God made him
Even before the angels shot him to the ground

[Verse 9]
He's a light out of the darkness
And he wears a starry crown
If you see him nothing is shaken
'Cause high summer's got him low down

[Outro]
High summer on the rebound
High summer's got him low down
High summer on the rebound
High summer's got him low down
High summer on the rebound
High summer's got him low down
Low down
