The Girls in Their Summer Dresses

Mikel Jollett

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
It's so quiet on these windswept days
The city lights, the golden rays
The sunlight on the subway tracks
Are you mad again? If you like I'll take it back

[Refrain]
They're just your feelings
I wasn't looking at her ass
Oh, do you mean it?

[Verse 2]
It's so lonesome, all this happenstance
If you asked me, yes, I'd like to dance
Just show me a glove-covered hand
A perfumed dress is more than I can stand

[Refrain 2]
And you approach me
With your hollow hearted hand
And you tell me:

[Verse 3]
"It's not civilized, it's not fair to me
The blues, the greys, the olive greens
All take you far away from me
The girls in their summer dresses see"

[Refrain 3]
Though you don't notice
They all look back at me
Is this on purpose?

[Break]
Oh no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
Oh no, no, no

[Bridge]
I offer you this one olive branch
It's not as though they're always so keen
And we're both just the victims of circumstance
Do you understand, do you know what I mean?

[Break]
Oh no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
Oh no, no, no
Oh no, no, no

[Verse 4]
I'm a husband first, I'm a childless curse
I'm a faithful man with a faceless thirst
I'll stay with you, oh please don't sigh
I try to explain, but you cry, and cry, and cry

[Ending]
And you hate me when I ask the reason why
You'll trade me a dollar for some sense
But don't blame me, I was only making sense
Oh I'm so sorry, I was only making sense
