The clouds were afraid one ten in the shade and the pavement was steamin’ I told Billy Ray in his red Chevro- let I needed time for some thinkin’. I was just walking by when I looked in her eye and I swore it was winkin’. She was thirty-one and I was seventeen I knew nothing about love she knew everything. But I sat down beside her on that front porch swing and wondered what the coming night would bring. B - F#madd11=2x The sun closed her eyes as it climbed in the skies and it started to swelter. The sweat trickled down the front of her gown I thought it would melt her. She threw back her hair like I wasn’t there she sipped on a Julep. Her shoulders were bare and I tried not to stare when I looked at her two lips. And when she looked at me I heard her softly say ’I know you’re young you don’t know what to do or say. But stay with me until the sun has gone away and I will chase the boy in you a- way. B - F#madd11=2x And then she smiled then we talked for a while and we walked for a mile to the sea. We sat on the sand and the boy took her hand but he saw the sun rise as a man. / - - - 2x - madd11=2x Ten years have gone by since I looked in her eyes but the memory lingers. I go back in my mind to the very first time feel the touch of her fingers. It was a hot afternoon the last day of June and the sun was a demon...
