Carmen
Nothin' Like The Summer
listen  "Stranded" by Carmen Rasmusen (Jason Deere/Kristyn Osborn)

1st Verse

Confusing
Well, that about wraps it up
You told me it wasn't love you were feeling
I slammed doors
'Cause I could just kick myself
I need more than a little help getting through this

Chorus

(I'm) (feelin' like)
I'm stranded on the side of the road
Nothin' to show
Nowhere to go
Baby, I've been stranded on the side of life's road
Somebody shake me and wake me
Take me home

2nd Verse

It kills me
That I could'a saved me some time
I pulled a few stars outta line
Just to please you
Well, excuse me
What happened to my common sense
It's like it just hopped the fence
And left me standing

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

You always said there'd come a day
You'd find a way to prove the world was flat
But here's my proof you told the truth
'Cause I watched you fall right off the map

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

1st Verse

A firefly glowin' on my left hand
Used to pretend it was a weddin' band
A tall cool glass of Mama's lemonade
Sold from a stand that me and my sister made
We'd count our quarters in the shade
Underneath a tree

2nd Verse

The boys in the clubhouse are right next door
Playin' cops and robbers and the Civil War
We'd all meet up at the swimmin' hole
With marshmellow sticks and our homemade fishin' poles
And the stars would guide us home
Oh, those sweet memories

Chorus

(Well) I love those summer days
Driftin' on by like a slow parade
And everything feels fine in the warm sunshine
When your world unwinds
And 'ya kick back in your flip-flops
And 'ya don't care about the tick-tock
And the world is full of music, dreams, and lovers
There ain't nothin' like the summer
(I love those summer days)
There ain't nothin' like the summer
(I love those summer days)
(I love those summer days)

3rd Verse

A blue-eyed boy with the baseball tan
On the ferris wheel he takes my hand
Long, slow dance underneath the moon
Prayin' so hard that the night won't end too soon
He whispers, 'I love you'
And I melt into his arms

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

The sun goes down, and the barbecue's lit
The radio's playin' that summer hit
We all wish these days would last forever

(Repeat Chorus)
