SUMMERTIME STARS

(Written by Rob Bolton, 1995)

1.) When I was just a little Bamboozle, my daddy took me for a ride, / Up to the Adirondack Mountains, and the Browns Track Ponds Campsite. / We canoed out onto a little lake. The sun went down kinda slow, / And then one-by-one, the stars came out in the sky and in the water below, / And in harmony started singing: It was a super stellar stereo show.

CHORUS.) Ooo, la la la, hey tonight, / Shooo-bop-bop-bop, mm they're in sight. / Doncha try and tell me that it ain't allright, / When those summertime stars are shining bright.

2.) We were feeling kinda special, and then I thought about Abraham. / It was promised that a might nation would be made from just that one man, / Countless as the sand on the shoreline, or those stars in that heavenly place, / Given life by the stunning sacrifice of obedience of faith, / and named each one by the one who made every one, and who knows every face.

CHORUS.) as above.

(Instrumental interlude.)

3.) Sometimes big people get frightened, and their troubles make 'em shake. / I guess they musta forotten thier own night out on that lake. / They say you don't know when you're little. / There's a whole lot you don't get. / But I remember the melody, my stars aren't silent yet. / And the one who made those stars and me is the one I'll never forget.

CHORUS. as above., twice.
