Sometimes I get restless and I pack up my bags
And i think I'd rather live out on the road
Leave my friends and family and my job far behind
Find a better place that i can go, now my
Baby says shes leavin in the summer time
Like a shadow she is bound to disappear
If she's really leavin i can't stay here anymore
There's too many memories round here.
I'll leave these memories in the rocky mountain air
Take em to the great divide and leave them way up there
Put em in that little stream thats always runnin clear
In the summertime, with Autumn comin in--around the bend
Maybe I'll buy a van and put my guitars in
Drive out to that California town
Park down by the water where the waves come rolling in
You know that's always been my favorite sound
Or maybe i'll go down to New Mexico instead
Ive got some friends down there i'd like to see
There'll be no pain in my heart and no visions in my head
How could there be without these memories
I'll leave these memories in the rocky mountain air
Take em to the great divide and leave them way up there
Put em in that little stream thats always runnin clear
In the summertime, with Autumn comin in--around the bend
