[Intro]
[Verse]
Gin fizz turns to water
Like a phantom daughter
Growing colder
Resting on my shoulder
Salt on the window pane
Washing with the rain
I whisper your name
[Chorus]
Oh, it was a linen summer
A soft and slow-dance drummer
Notes on a napkin edge
Life on a narrow ledge
Honey in the evening light
Holding on to the night
[Post-Chorus]
Shoo-be-doo, ba-da-da
Doo-be-doo, sha-la-la
Soft and low, don't you know
How the memories start to grow
Shoo-be-doo, ba-da-da
Doo-be-doo, sha-la-la
[Verse]
Flugelhorn in the hall
Shadows on the wall
Walking by the shore
Wanting a little more
Sand in my yellow shoes
Singing those coastal blues
Nothing left to lose
[Bridge]
The ink is turning gray
The tide has washed away
Everything we used to say
But I still feel the spray
The air is getting thin
Where the dream within
Is where I begin
[Chorus]
Oh, it was a linen summer
A soft and slow-dance drummer
Notes on a napkin edge
Life on a narrow ledge
Honey in the evening light
Holding on to the night
[Breakdown]
[Verse]
That basement bar was dim
The glass filled to the brim
You wore that linen shirt
A little bit of dirt
From the pier where we sat
I still remember that
You whispered in my ear
The things I needed to hear
[Verse]
Fifty-five was the year
With nothing left to fear
The radio played a tune
Beneath a paper moon
We didn't have a cent
But we knew what it meant
Every moment spent
Was heaven-sent
[Chorus]
Oh, it was a linen summer
A soft and slow-dance drummer
Notes on a napkin edge
Life on a narrow ledge
Honey in the evening light
Holding on to the night
[Post-Chorus]
Shoo-be-doo, ba-da-da
Doo-be-doo, sha-la-la
Soft and low, don't you know
How the memories start to grow
Shoo-be-doo, ba-da-da
Doo-be-doo, sha-la-la
[Outro]
