The Likes of You
Summertime
It's so fine
Like the day that the snow gave way to 28 Centrigrade
Vapor trails and the choice we made
Night brings day
The wolves at bay never learned to sleep when they needed it
And the blood they breed
With fears they feed
Can't believe how they mistreated it
When they needed it
I'd turn around, take it back, let it ride for the likes of you
I'd tear it down, build it up, give it all for the likes of you
We shared a time when our worlds aligned
And the stars reminded of a fire that will burn forever
But where are you now?
Somehow I can hope when the sun goes down
Then night brings dawn
The holes in the lawn
Never had their fill when they needed it
And the jealous weeds
Like the love they freed
Can't believe how they mistreated it
When they needed it
I'd turn around, take it back, let it ride for the likes of you
I'd tear it down, build it up, give it all for the likes of you
The time to think, the drive to drink, the spaces far between and few
I'd give it all for the likes of
For the likes of
For the likes of
For the likes of you
