Roy Orbison Indian Summer Lyrics

You were a lady-like lady, I was a boy, running wild
The way that you used everything that God gave you
I gave you my heart like a child

One moment you took me to heaven
Took me back to earth and then
Before I woke up to the fact I was small
You took me back to heaven again

And I remember the Indian summer
How you held me, how you loved me

The world may give me a million reasons, but reasons don't make it wrong
Every lesson I learned has a price in return
I was lost in my youth and to tell you the truth

I was empty and you filled me with a glow of love
A loving loves may die just to hear you, that sees me through
Oh, what I'd give to re-live all the Indian summers with you

So many hearts have been broken
You had no trouble with mine
Like a fool I was there for the taking but then it was only a matter of time You can lie in the sun with the warm wind blowing
Just knowing you've already paid
But you can't live alone in an Indian summer, at 110 in the shade

And I remember the Indian summer
How you held me in the moonlight

We were riding along on a silver dream
Never dreaming it off my head
And if I'd known I'd lose you the moment I found you
I'd love you all over again

'Cos I'm still empty, come fill me
With a fire of love
Your flame will follow flame 'cos it's all I want to do

Oh, what I'd give to re-live all the Indian summers with you
Oh, what I'd give to re-live all the Indian summers with you
Oh, what I'd give to re-live all the Indian summers with you
Oh, what I'd give to re-live all the Indian summers with you
