Jesse Malin - In the Summer lyrics

I met her down on Bond Street on the streets of cobblestone She had a spark like Joan of Arc, like no one else I've known We traded up some stories at the Ca**avetes bar It was early June, I'd become immune to collisions in the stars And we're living in the summer, it can really do a number Living in the summer and I'm trying to recover Living in the summer and I hope to see another Down by love In my boots and braces I thought I was pretty tough She sang me songs and read me poems and then she called my bluff The celibate summer was all about repair Just take some time, ease your mind, and it will all be there And we're living in the summer, it can really do a number Living in the summer and I'm trying to recover Living in the summer and I hope to see another Down by love Wake up calls from England in Greenwich Standard Time I jumped right up and tried my luck, it was just some friends of mine I went back to New York and hit all of the spots I was east of 3rd as I heard the words "to have and to have not" And we're living in the summer, it can really do a number Living in the summer and I'm trying to recover Living in the summer and I hope to see another Down by love
