Lyrics
Was a hot afternoon The last day of June The sun was a demon The clouds were afraid One ten in the shade And the pavement was steaming I told Billy Ray In his red Chevrolet I needed time for some thinking I was just walking by When I looked in her eye And swore it was winking She was thirty-one and I was seventeen I knew nothing about love, she knew everything I sat beside her on the front porch swing And wondered what the coming night would bring The sun closed her eyes As it climbed in the skies And 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 As I looked at her two lips Then 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 that boy in you away." Then she smiled And we talked for awhile Then we walked for a mile to the sea We sat on the sands, and a boy took her hand But I saw the sun rise as a man (instrumental) Ten years have gone by Since I looked in her eye But the memory lingers... I go back in my mind To the very first time The touch of her fingers... (Repeat first two verses and fade)
