David & The Citizens - Summer In No-Man's-Land lyrics

In the summer I was waiting for the daughter of a drunk and a waitress To recover, to get better Till the last day of the summer had blown over The birds were singing a last goodbye The only thing that could be heard Except for the sobbing and dropping of tears A loss of someone who'd really been gone for years Sky was bluer than ever before Our minds were bluer than ever before Attacks of free sharks in the harbor Far from all this misery is misery Here they sit in the pouring sun all day long just wasting time All day long just waiting for a stranger's eye and a stranger's smile In the trembling air for the laughter and eyes rolling round in your head Till the day you drop dead on your side on the living room floor as I took the bus loaded with stuff And oceans of sweat pouring down on my back oceans of sweat pouring down on my back In the summer I was waiting for the daughter of a drunk and a waitress To recover, to get better Till the last day of the summer had blown over
