Lyrics

I remember those summer nights
In the orchard by the firelight
Those summer nights of my youth
I learned to play the guitar
And dreamed of becoming a star
Those sweet summer nights of my youth

Camping outside under the trees, staring up at the moon
Singing three part harmony to Rocky Racoon
I love those old melodies
Brings me right back to those apple trees
Those sweet summer melodies

Circa nineteen seventy two
I packed a bag and didn’t show for school
Those crazy things young rebels do
Unbraided hair and black felt hat
Speakers blasting with Black Sabbath
Those sweet summer nights of my youth

Gathered around an open fire, staring up at the stars
We filled the night with harmony singing Me and Bobby McGee
I love those old melodies
Brings me back to those apple trees
And those sweet summer melo…
Sweet sweet summer melo…
Those sweet summer melodies
