I'm not sure if this has been done recently, but I just heard this one on the radio~

That Summer Lyrics
Artist: Garth Brooks


I went to work for her that summer
A teenage kid so far from home
She was a lonely widow woman
Hell bent to make it on her own
We were a thousand miles from nowhere
Wheat fields as far as i could see
Both needin' somethin' from each other
Not knowin' yet what that might be

'Til she came to me one evening
Hot cup of coffee and a smile
In a dress that i was certain
She hadn't worn in quite a while
There was a difference in her laughter
There was a softness in her eyes
And on the air there was a hunger
Even a boy could recognize

chorus:
She had a need to feel the thunder
To chase the lightnin' from the skies
To watch the storm with all its wonder
Raging in her lover's eyes
She had to ride the heat of passion
Like a comet burnin' bright
Rushing head long in the wind
Out where only dreams had been
Burnin' both ends of the night

That summer wind was all around me
Nothin' between us but the night
And when i told her that I'd never
She softly whispered that's alright
And then I watched her hands of leather
Turn to velvet in a touch
There's never been another summer
When I have ever learned so much

Repeat chorus
I often think about that summer
The sweat the moonlight and the lace
And I have rarely held another
When I haven't seen her face
And every time I pass a wheat field
Watch it dancin' with the wind
Although I know it isn't real
I just can't help but feel
Her hungry arms again

Repeat chorus
Rushing head long in the wind
Out where only dreams had been
Burnin' both ends of the night

Hiya, Snowy!

I'm no country fan :D (Okay, how 'bout The Eagles?)
but those were nice lyrics to read.

How about Rod Stewart's song, Maggie Mae?
That's pretty much a "pop" classic, huh?

It goes a little somethin' like this:

Wake up Maggie, I think I've got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused
But I fell I'm being used
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts

The morning sun when it's in your eyes really shows your age
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes
My love you didn't need to coax
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a helping hand
But you turned into a lover and mother, what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
And in the morning kick me in the head
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
'Cause you didn't want to be alone
You stole my heart, I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collecd my books and go on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living at playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face
You made a first class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home, one of these days

Snow, I had heard that Garth Brooks wrote/sang a song about a relationship between an OW and a YM, but I had never read the lyrics until now. Thank you for sharing them with us.

Harrison, I had never interpreted "Maggie Mae" as an OW/YM song. Of course, I'd heard the song a million times before, but it never dawned on me. Great thinking on your part.

Adam

Your welcome Adam I love that GB song, and I love Maggie mae, thanks Harrison.
How about one we love to hate?
LOL My kids were singng this one when it first came out, I have YET to hear it in its eniterty!


FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE LYRICS
"Stacys Mom"


Stacy's mom has got it goin' on (oh)
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on (oh)
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on (oh)
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on (oh)

Stacy, can i come over after school? (after school)
We can hang around by the pool (hang by the pool)
Did your mom get back from her business trip? (business trip)
Is she there, or is she trying to give me the slip? (give me the slip)

You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be
I'm all grown up now, baby can't you see

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want and I;ve waited for so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on

Stacy, do you remember when I mowed your lawn? (mowed your lawn)
Your mom came out with just a towel on (towel on)
I could tell she liked me from the way she stared (the way she stared)
And the way she said, "You missed a spot over there"

And I know that you think it's just a fantasy
But since your dad walked out, your mom could use a guy like me

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want, and I've waited so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong,
but I'm in love with Stacy's mom
