Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I don’t much like summer nights
Palm trees blowing in the breeze
And I’ve got no use for a full moon
Shining down on the sea
Cause they bring to mind another time

[Pre-Chorus]
And a girl I used to know
Who loved me and held me
Then let me go

[Chorus ]
I don’t go near the water now
Cause I’m afraid I’ll surely drown
In a heavy sea of heartache
That take a hold and pull me down
Cause ocean waves bring back yesterdays

[Pre-Chorus]
And the girl I used to know
Who loved me and held me
Then let me go

[Chorus]
I don’t go near the water now
Cause I’m afraid I’ll surely drown
In a heavy sea of heartache
That take a hold and pull me down
Cause ocean waves bring back yesterdays
And the girl I used to know
Who loved me and held me
And then let me go
