Fatal Summer Music and Lyrics by Jim Ramsey You’ve become as the arbor vine, as a dance upon the sea You’ve become as a light defined by day And this love that you’ve issued forth is waiting there is waiting there for me Taking us back to the place we longed to be Because we love each other, life has taken on a salient explanation of the past Because we love each other, love’s become my only lover And this might prove to have been my fatal summer My fatal summer Looking down on the landing lights at the missile sights of Rome Don’t you know that for some things never change? Yet if we could hold the tide against the loss of hope We could be there at the break of a brand new day Because we love each other, life has taken on a salient explanation of the past Because we love each other, love’s become my only lover And this might prove to have been my fatal summer My fatal summer In a world of endless compromise that undermines the will Thelema you’re my last resort as I move upon the hill And I don’t know where I’m going to and I don’t know where I’ve been But I know it’s not within myself to refuse this chance to sing Because we love each other, life has taken on a salient explanation of the past Because we love each other, love’s become my only lover And this might prove to have been my fatal summer My fatal summer Copyright ? © 2012 Jim Ramsey Lead Vocals – Jim Ramsey Keyboards -- Joseph Akins Produced and Arranged by Joseph Akins Recording Engineer – Fred Schendel Production Assistant – Steve Babb Recorded and Mastered at Sound Resource, Chattanooga, Tennessee
