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 knownWe traded up some stories at the Cassavetes bar
It was early June, I'd become immune to collisions in the starsAnd 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 loveIn my boots and braces I thought I was pretty tough
She sang me songs and read me poems and then she called my bluffThe celibate summer was all about repair
Just take some time, ease your mind, and it will all be thereAnd 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 loveWake up calls from England in Greenwich Standard Time
I jumped right up and tried my luck, it was just some friends of mineI 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
