Nine Summers Lost - Harry Manx

Hearts can be broken only so many ways

Nine kids down in under thirty days

Nine summers lost… Nine lovely little dreams

Nine summers lost… Words get the best of me First came the fathers Then came their wives

All hurting to know the value of a life

Some get sorry the young get old

They all feel they can’t take no more

Nine summers lost… Nine lovely little dreams

Nine summers lost… Words get the best of me Darkened sounds creep thru the wall next door

Say goodbye to the world you dragged across the floor

Early morning took you away in a new car

On the way downtown it rained inside your heart
