Lyrics
Clear Day in July
She left her shoes at the edge of the room and walked in from the outside
Met me with a smile that only she can do
Dropped her bags, took off her coat, she could see I had something to say
I grabbed the wine and a candle or two and said, "C'mon lets go for a ride"
On this clear day today in July
My eye caught light as the shadows splattered against my faded grey paint job
All I knew was that the tank was full and the road went past the state line
I don't prey for tomorrow I give thanks for today
Something's not right in the back of my mind when you're not here by my side
But you're here with me
On this clear day today in July
Roll down the windows we can read the passing signs
Name all the trees in blowing breeze while I hold your hair back out of your eyes
You may think something's wrong with me because I know it's out of style
Not to need some kind of rescue
It's all right here, it's all right now with you next to me, nothing more I need
On this clear day today, this clear day today in July
