Lyrics Summer of John Wayne - Tom McRae
A
summer
of
John
Wayne
Getting
older
Reel
after
reel
And
playing
old
soldiers
With
old
wounds
You
know
how
that
feels
And
a
summer
of
searching
The
underworld
An
arrow
in
my
heel
And
the
winding
down
of
days
And
the
speeding
of
time
won't
change
But
I
know
you
say
nothing
good
lasts
forever
Some
things
burn
bright
But
burn
themselves
out
to
embers
And
these
weather
conversations
And
small
talk
Steal
my
hours
away
And
I
gave
away
my
best
to
strangers
Day
after
day
And
the
winding
down
of
days
And
the
speeding
of
time
won't
change
But
I
know
you
say
Nothing
good
lasts
forever
Some
things
burn
bright
But
burn
themselves
out
to
embers
Your
love
is
a
cold,
cold
place
my
dear
The
seasons
change
those
ghosts
appear
And
every
sound
is
an
echo
of
yesterday.
And
suddenly
I
fall
through
the
cracks
in
time
And
I'm
standing
here
with
your
hand
in
mine
And
I
turn
around
to
see
you
there's
no
one
there
But
I
know
you
say
Nothing
good
lasts
forever
You
will
forget
But
I
will
always
remember,
the
time
