Words and music by Gwynn Torres and Sid Berger VERSE: Another summer evening, just as warm as it can be. The rays of sun poke through the shade of the silver maple tree I’m sitting on the porch, just the way we liked to do And like a gentle breeze, my thoughts all lead to you. VERSE: Neighbors driving by, rushing homeward for the night Joggers pass by sweating in this final fading light People all around me as the sun begins to set But I’m about as lonely now as I could get. CHORUS: I've got the sweet cicada blues. Sitting outside, steamin’ hot, getting’ in lost in, sweet cicada blues I've got the sweet cicada blues Sitting outside, steamin’ hot, getting’ in lost in, sweet cicada blues And my missing you is regular as yesterday’s news Such an ache in my heart, like a giant purple bruise I've got the sweet cicada blues Sitting outside, steamin’ hot, getting’ in lost in, sweet cicada blues (REPEAT) BRIDGE: And I feel you in my heart, as the dusk begins to dwell. How you’d bring home the joy in every day’s farewell. I hear you in the shadows every time I close my eyes Tellin’ me that everything's gonna be alright. VERSE: When I tune out all but you, you feel so very near Whispering what I know you’d say, if you were really here. Telling me to stand up strong, just the way you would Cause no matter what, you’re part of me for good.
