Summer Water Lyrics - Michael Ray

[Verse 1] 

Sometimes that lake got angry, as the lightnin' went and crashed 

Sometimes it was so still, it looked like a sheet of glass 

But it washed away our beer cans, and it washed away our sins 

It talked us out of all our clothes, and begged us to jump in 

[Chorus] 

There was magic in the summer water 

Learned to swim in the summer water 

All the small town sons and daughters 

Were baptized a thousand times 

Built fire by it like an altar 

Gave it every song we could offer 

Memories float on it like a bobber 

Out there on the summer water

[Verse 2] 

When a heart was broken, it was better than a church pew sanctuary 

A lot of long kiss, rocks skip, sun drenched orange crush bottle caps got buried 

It's where you spend your first night with your first love before the mercury starts fallin' 

It's where you spend the last with your first love, before somebody goes to college 

[Chorus] 

There was magic in the summer water 

Learned to swim in the summer water 

All the small town sons and daughters 

Were baptized a thousand times 

Built fire by it like an altar 

Gave it every song we could offer 

Memories float on it like a bobber 

Out there on the summer water

There was somethin' 'bout the summer water 

Every girl that's where you brought her 

It's where you slipped that ring you bought her 

On her shakin' hand 

Built fire by it like an altar 

Gave it every song we could offer 

Memories float on it like a bobber 

Out there on the summer water 

[Outro] 

Yeah out on the summer water
