I remember when Maggie said your head caved in

The first time we heard Mad Dogs and Englishmen

We laid on the hood feeling absolutely bulletproof

Ah but I was a ghost that you were reliving

Way back then we were gone right out of our heads

But August was red hot and Georgia was steamin'

We were all revved up about everything

Wild like a hurricane inside her arms

I don't know when it all went cold

Broken down, shaking by the side of the road

They always told me there were storms inside my room

Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues

Then she came from a million miles away

She hid from the heavy rain deep in Manhattan

But now it's quiet, let the sleeping dogs lie tonight

Maybe you and I we can live forever

Way back then we never ever went to bed

We just stayed up all night to see what would happen

We were all revved up about everything

Wild like a hurricane inside her arms

I don't know when it all went cold

Broken down, shaking on the side of the road

They always told me there were storms inside my room

Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues

So have you seen her down by the water

Driving us crazy in the half black Moon

So have you seen her float on the water

In the heat of June

We were all revved up about everything

Wild like a hurricane inside her arms

I can't be sure if it was more

or just some spell we were under

I must have dreamed you up inside my room

Oh and honey I remember everything

With a memory wide as a country mile

You don't know, you don't know how it feels to be me

I was born with rain inside my shoes

Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues

Once upon a time on a summer night high on the blues
