She's just waiting for the summertime When the weather's fine And she could hitch a ride out of town And so far away From that low down, good for nothing Mistake making fool with excuses like "baby that was a long time ago" But that's just a euphemism If you want the truth he was out of control But a short time is a long time When your mind just won't let it go Well, summer came along and then it was gone And so was she, but not from him Because he followed her just to let her know Her dreams are dreams All this living's so much harder than it seems But girl, don't let your dreams be dreams You know this living's not so hard as it seems Don't let your dreams be dreams Your dreams be dreams Be dreams
