Shakin'

It’s a party that starts in the evening
It’s a dance where you spin off in twos
I’m sittin’ here just tappin’ a foot and wonderin’ what I got to lose
Watchin’ you watch the dance from the sidelines
My heart’s achin’ ‘cause we both know the tune
It’s hard to tell if you brought a partner
She could be in the ladies’ room
I feel like a fool, shakin’ in my shoes
But it’s cool, yeah, ‘cause I’ll be shakin’, shakin’
Till I’m shakin’ to the rhythm with you
Shakin', shakin', ahh
Shakin', shakin', ooh
It’s a dream that you have in the mornin’
A secret bubble of time just for you
This stuff’s so easy for me when I’m sleepin’
But not as I walk up to you
Keep readin’ signs and gettin’ excited
Although I know I’m probably wrong
I’m sneakin’ peeks at hearts on your phone screen
Hopin’ that they’re for your mom
And I feel like a fool, shakin’ in my shoes
But it’s cool, yeah, ‘cause I’ll be shakin’, shakin’
Till I’m shakin’ to the rhythm with you
My two left feet make me wanna reconsider
Then again maybe you’ll assume it’s just the liquor
I love this bossa nova but I only know the jitterbug
Take my hands and lead me to love
I feel like a fool, shakin’ in my shoes
But it’s cool, yeah, ‘cause I’ll be shakin’, shakin’, shakin’
I feel like a fool, shakin’ in my shoes again
But it’s cool, yeah, ‘cause I’ll be shakin’, shakin’, shakin', shakin', shakin'
Shakin', shakin', ah, shake it for me, shake it, baby
Shakin', shakin' I'm shakin' to that rhythm with you

What Do I Do?

People say to me
Look around, be realistic
But the only one I see when I'm dreamin' is you
It's you
The only one I see when I'm dreamin' is you
You, ooh
What do I do?
When that love song plays
I act just like it's nothing
But the only one I see when I'm singin' is you
It's you
The only one I see when I'm singin' is you
You, ooh
What do I do?
As silly as it all is, it's just something that I wanna say
'Cause I think I kinda love you in some silly little type of way
In some silly little type of way
I get great advice
And nod my head in silence
But the only thing I see when they're speakin' is you
It's you
The only thing I see when they're speakin' is you
You, ooh
What do I do?
As silly as it all is, it's just something that I wanna say
Oh baby
I think I kinda love you in some silly little type of way
In some silly little type of way
People say to me
Look around, be realistic
But the only one I see when I'm dreamin' is you
You
The only one I see when I'm dreamin' is you
You, ooh
What do I do?

Stranger

I never know quite what to say
When it's just you and me and a beautiful day
Doesn't it look like a dream?
Just a boy and a girl all alone on the side of the street
City storefronts in the sun
And so many sentences stuck on my tongue
I don't wanna walk back to your door
Glance at a stranger, say "I'll see you later" just like I've done a million times before
You better not hold me too long
I better not kiss you like you know I want to
You better not ask me to stay, walk away
Or a stranger might think that we're lovers
How am I coming across?
Strolling slow past the bum and the parking garage
I never can tell if you know
I gave up on trying to give you up a long time ago
Dreaming that one of these days
You'll let her go and come running my way
And you'll hold me so tight like you do
When I'm at your place and it's getting too late and I say another goodbye to you
You
You better not hold me too long
I better not kiss you like you know I want to
You better not ask me to stay, walk away
Or a stranger might think
Oh
You better not hold me too long, no
You better not kiss me like I know you want to
I better not ask you to stay, walk away
Or a stranger might think
That we're lovers

Summer Woods Chino Hills, California
Summer Woods puts a fresh spin on the traditions of classic singer/songwriters like Joni Mitchell, but thanks to offbeat influences such as Beck and Ween, her music comes out sounding like something only Summer could create.
