The Summer Before Lyrics

out of the camera lens
is arizona
and arizona's as good as
california
then tell you in confidence,
If it wasn't for you
in arizona
out from an instrument
the calm before it
I saw the bloodstains
all sorrows are wasted on you
in arizona
hold the machinery
and call the foreman
make the sun rise
and tell all the coffins
all summer was wasted on you,
Arizona
i'll see you someday
the sky and night's home
the clouds roll in
arizona
all of the sighing children
the summer before you came to know us
said all of the sighing children
the summer before you came to know us

out of the camera lens
is arizona
and arizona's as good as california
then tell you in confidence
if it wasn't for you
out from an instrument
in arizona

all summer's wasted on you
and arizona
