Van Morrison - High Summer (Lyrics) video free download

Lyrics;

By the mansion on the hillside

Red sports car comes driving down the road

And pulls up into the driveway

And a story does unfold

She's standing by the rhododendrons

Where the roses are in bloom

Looking out at the Atlantic ocean

And in her head she hums this tune

Thank God the dark nights are drawing in again

'Cos high summer has got me down

I'll wait till the end of August

And get off this merry-go-round

And they shut him out of paradise

Called him Lucifer and frowned

She took pride in what God made him

Even before the angels shot him down to the ground

He's a light out of the darkness

And he wears a starry crown

If you see him, nothing will shake him

'Cos high summer has got him low down

High summer's got him lonesome

Eyen when he makes the rounds

There's been no two ways about it

High summer's got him low down

Checked in to the tiny village by the lakeside

Settled down to start a new

Far away from the politicians

And the many chosen few

Far away from the jealousy factor

And everything that was tearing him apart

Far away from the organ grinder

And everyone that played their part

And they shut him out of paradise

Called him Lucifer and frowned

'Cos he took pride in what God made him

Eyen before the angels shot him to the ground

He's a light out of the darkness

And he wears a starry crown

If you see him nothings shaken

'Cos high summer's got him low down

High summer's on the rebound

High summer's got him low down

High summer's on the rebound

High summer's got him down, low down

High summer's on the rebound

High summer's got him low down
