Small Town Summer - Derek Ryan

I remember that small town summer

Beer cans and barley fields

The first time I saw your eyes shimmer

Through the shadows of a Ferris wheel

And my new guitar and dad’s old car

I didn’t think we’d go so far

Endless nights and splendid hearts

Drifted out of site

We were wild, we were strong, we were young, we were wrong

Love was just something to do

We had fields, we had dreams, we were somewhere between

Everything and nothing to prove

What I’d give for one more small town summer with you

I remember that sweet warm feeling

Stargazing, nowhere to be

It was easy just believing

We were always gonna be that free

Now I’m worlds apart from where you are

City skies they have no stars

Still your eyes after all this time

Shimmer in my mind

We were wild, we were strong, we were young, we were wrong

Love was just something to do

We had fields, we had dreams, we were somewhere between

Everything and nothing to prove

What I’d give for one more small town summer with you

Love never came so easy

That’s when you were lying with me

I guess I had to leave to see, you were always where I wanna be

I remember that small town summer

Beer cans and barley fields

We were wild, we were strong, we were young, we were wrong

Love was just something to do

We had fields, we had dreams, we were somewhere between

Everything and nothing to prove

What I’d give for one more small town summer with you
