Summer Rider 1969 - Rustic Melodies

Heat waves dancing on a broken road
Dust in the wind where the long grass grows
Radio crackling with an old love song
I was 20 years just rolling on
A leather jacket sun on my face
Chasing freedom at a reckless pace
No map no plan
Just a tank half full
And a wild heart nobody could pull
And I saw her standing by that roadside sign
Like a dream caught somewhere in time
Summer of 69
We were wild and free burning through the days
Like a runaway dream
She was fire in the night like a spark in the dark
Left her name carved deep in my heart
Summer of 69
Just a moment in time
But it lives forever in the soul of mine
Yeah I still ride those memories
Like a summer rider in 69
Met her down at a roadside bar
Neon flicker and a beat up guitar
She laughed like she didn't care at all
Like she never learned how to fall
We rode out past the County line
Two lost souls and borrowed time
Wind in her hair my hand in hers
In that moment nothing else mattered
Every sunset felt like it wouldn't end
But forever ain't something you can defend
Summer of 69
We were wild and free burning through the days
Like a runaway dream
She was fire in the night like a spark in the dark
Left her name carved deep in my heart
Summer of 69
Just a moment in time
But it lives forever in the soul of mine
Yeah I still ride those memories
Like a summer rider in 69
Woke up one morning she was gone
Just a shadow and the radio on
Left a note on the dashboard light
Sometime love don't stay even when it's right
I drove for miles but I knew somehow
You don't chase ghosts that won't slow down
So I kept on riding through the pain
With a whisper running through my veins
Yeah
The road remembers every tear
Every laugh still echoes here
Summer of 69
We were wild and free burning through the days
Like a runaway dream
She was fire in the night like a spark in the dark
