Lyrics John Butler Trio – Please Don’t Leave
Text:
Come on autumn leaves
Come on 90 degrees
Come on soon and never leave
Come on 9 pm
God I wish that summer would never end
Sandy feet for 13 weeks and
14 hours to walk the streets like
Oh my, I have so much time ’cause
No time is like summertime to me
When I see fireflies
I’ve put on a clever disguise
I’ve put diamonds in my eyes
Just so I can say hello
And when I get back home
I’ll pick up the phone
Call up a friend that I used to know
And say, «You should have seen me»
With sandy feet for 13 weeks and
14 hours to walk the streets like
Oh my, I have so much time ’cause
No time is like summertime to me
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
If I could go back in time
I would go back to five
Great grandma would make her apple pie
She’d look at me and smile
For what seemed the longest while
And say, «John some day you’re gonna fly»
My, oh, my how time flies by
When you got sandy feet for 13 weeks and
14 hours to walk the streets like
Oh my, I have so much time ’cause
No time is like summertime to me
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
Please don’t leave
