|
Open all of your windows, can't you hear the boys are calling |
|
Step outside for the night, y'know it's summertime, they'll all be there |
|
And they're playing memories on the radio |
|
Got your back pretty one, I know that you've got mine |
|
Oh my love, there is trouble in the heartland |
|
You and me, as we walk the square of possibility |
|
Caught up in a love that could not be |
|
I remember she used to refer to you as sweet, sweet prince |
|
Though she's always known that you're nothing but a working man's son |
|
Your ambition was always to high for one of us |
|
Surely you would go on, oh baby, to do what we can't dream |
|
Oh my love, there is trouble in the heartland |
|
One last dance, save your worries for another rainy day |
|
You wouldn't want it any other way |
|
But darling it's time to say our goodbyes to summer romance |
|
By the fall, all will be gone and then we'll walk our separate ways |
|
We'll let this night be our last big mistake |
|
From the heroes of yesteryear |
|
The only one, still left standing |
|
Tuned in to life's radio |
|
A blue song from long ago |
|
Oh my love, there is trouble in the heartland |
|
You and me, as we walk the square of possibility |
|
Caught up in a love that could not be |
|
But darling can't you see? |
|
We're still soldiers of the heartland, |
|
even now I still see you like I did when I could dream |
|
of a place where we'd be known as king & queen |
