Summer, Highland Falls piano leadsheet with chords

They say that these are not the best of times,

but they're the only times I've ever known.

And I believe there is a time

for meditation in cathedrals of our own.

Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes,

and I can only stand.

apart and sympathize.

For we are always what our situations hand us,

it's either sadness or

euphoria.

So we'll argue and we'll compromise,

and realize that nothing's ever changed.

For all our mutual experience,

our separate conclusions are

the same.

Now we are forced to recognize

our inhumanity.

Our reason coexists with our insanity.

And though we choose between reality and madness,

it's either sadness or

euphoria.

How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies.

Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies.

And as we stand upon the ledges of our lives

with our respective similarities,

it's either sadness or

euphoria.

Whoa

ho, ho.

Whoa, ho, ho,

whoa.
