Honored by the Will McLean Foundation, 1994 - one of the best songs written about Florida
Music and Lyrics by Donna Klein
Water drips slowly through tree leaves.
The rain has ended much to my delight!
A brilliant sunset now greets me.
Soon comes a Florida Summer Night!
Soon comes a Florida Summer Night!
A breeze lilts tenderly through my hair.
It cools my skin and warms me inside!
Sweet scent of jasmine drifts through the air
On this Florida Summer Night!
On this Florida Summer Night!
Come, let the stars wash your cares away!
Put them to rest for another day.
Sense somehow everything will be all right
On this Florida Summer Night!
See lightning streaking out of the east.
To heaven's gate it takes its flight!
A cricket's singing can soothe the beast
On this Florida Summer Night!
On this Florida Summer Night!
Come, let the stars wash your cares away!
Put them to rest for another day.
Sense somehow everything will be all right
On this Florida Summer Night!
I will follow where it leads me.
You can go there. Won't you join me?
There's no reason to hide, no reason to be shy
On this Florida Summer Night!
So near the water I'll rest my bones.
I can't imagine a better sight!
The sky above me, the earth below
On this Florida Summer Night!
On this Florida Summer Night!
Come, let the stars wash your cares away!
Put them to rest for another day.
Sense somehow everything will be all right
On this Florida Summer Night!Come, let the stars wash your cares away!
Put them to rest for another day.
Sense somehow everything will be all right
On this Florida Summer Night!
