Holiday

I left a trail so I could find my way
I'll take a trip and have a holiday
No god above me but the Sun and Moon
To hold me back from what I wanna do
I'll take a trip and have a holiday
And in the dead of night
Got me swaying by your candle light
Just burning away
Yes, until the wind comes in and takes me back to you
It's getting trickier to just maintain
The way the world is going up in flames
Stood on the landing taking in all that rain
To soothe a fire in my aching brain
Can't try too hard to make a good thing last
Can't dwell at all upon your precious past
Just take a trip and have a holiday
And in the dead of night
Got me swaying by your candle light
Just burning away, yeah now hold me back
And in the dead of night
Got me swaying by your candle light
Just burning away
Until the wind comes in and takes me back to you
I left a trail so I could find my way
I'll take a trip and have a holiday
No god above me but the Sun and Moon
To hold me back from what I wanna do
I'll take a trip and have a holiday

Apple Tree Swing

I've got a feeling that you must be right
I've got this noose on and my neck feels tight
If I'm in trouble, can I call you tonight
So we could be alone, just you and me
Yeah, I mean, we could be swinging from the apple tree
My friends are lovely, yeah they suit me just fine
The kind of people (That) takes a lifetime to find
But I'm so lonesome, I need someone to hold
I need somebody who can comfort me
Yeah, I mean, that I could swing with from the apple tree
(Hear me swing it to ya)
I'm moving in to your neighbourhood
Where everybody's always up to no good
If we can make it, I think we should try
'Cause if we never do, I'll never get to ease my mind
Not every story has a happy end
Well, the more you break a heart, the harder it is to mend
But I'm so hopeful, I'll keep trying my luck
Before I chuck it in to memories
Yeah I mean, before they chop down that old apple tree
You hear me singing, "If we don't do it
Yeah we'll never get to do it anytime, or anyhow"

Hell or high water, I will come through
You made me love, honey: what can I do
The arrow struck me, right through the heart
You're all I want, baby, when we're apart
You're always there when I need a good friend
On your carousel in the summertime
That's where you'll be 'till I go blind
You're looking at me like I fell from a tree
Walked across the ocean, honey, just to lay at your feet
I'll the punches for you just as long as I can
Keep all your promises, honey, and stick to the plan
You're always leaving a trail I can find
On your carousel in the summertime
That's where you'll be 'till I go blind
Too many heartaches will just curse your soul
I ain't here to save you, no I ain't that bold
You've got your reasons from what I can see
Changes with the season, honey, but it don't bother me
You're getting dizzy but you keep spinning 'roung
On your carousel in the summertime
That's where you'll be 'till I go blind

Summertime Blues
02:36

I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date
My boss says, "no dice son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well, my mom and pop told me, "son, you gotta make some money"
If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
"Well, you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well, I called my congressman and he said "whoa!"
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
