When I was 18 I didn’t know pain when the sun was high
Burnt face, shadow’s erased and I knew I’d be alright
They tried to hurt me, uh-huh
Somethin’ blinded me, uh-huh
That reminded me, uh-huh
Of a better space and time, miles away
The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
When I turned 21 I saw the sun pulling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouette’s stumbling in the night
But we collided, uh-huh
In a ?, uh-huh
Got alot on me, uh-huh
Now I’m bathing in the bright of divided rays
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
Time, time
I left that behind me, uh-huh
But somethin’ blinded me, uh-huh
You reminded me, uh-huh
Of a better space and time, miles away
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summer-time
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summer-time
