Silently the morning mist is lying on the water
Captive moonlight waiting for the dawn
Softly like a baby’s breath a breeze begins to whisper
The sun is coming, quick you must be gone
Smiling like a superstar the morning comes in singing
The promise of another sunny day
And all the flowers open up to gather in the sunshine
I do believe that summer’s here to stay
Do you care what's happening around you
Do your sense know the changes when they come
Can you see yourselves reflected in the season
Can you understand the need to carry on
Riding on the tapestry of all there is to see
So many ways and oh so many things
Rejoicing in the differences
There's no one just like me
Yet as different as we are , we're still the same
And oh I love the life within me
I feel part of everything I see
And oh I love the life around me
It was a hot afternoon
The last day of june,
And the sun was a demon.
The clouds were afraid.
One ten in the shade,
And the pavement was steamin’.
I told billy ray
In his red chevrolet
I needed time for some thinkin’.
He was just passing by
When I caught that boy’s eye,
And I swore it was winkin’.
I was thirty-one,
He was seventeen.
He knew nothing about love.
I knew everything.
But he sat right down
On the front porch swing,
And I wondered what the
Coming night would bring.
Sun closed my eyes,
Climbed to the skies.
It was starting to swelter.
The sweat trickled down
The front of my gown.
I thought it would melt me.
I threw back my hair
Like he wasn’t there
And I sipped, oooh, something coolin’.
My shoulders bare,
He tried not to stare,
Whoa, but I knew I wasn’t foolin’.
I looked deep into those eyes of blue,
I said, "boy, I know you’re young,
Don’t know what to say or do.
But stay with me ’til the sun goes away
And I will chase the boy in you away!"
Guess you know why
That kid caught my eyes,
Oooh, and why the memory still lingers.
Go back in my mind
To the very first time,
Ooh-ooh-ooh, I felt the touch of somebody’s fingers.
I go back in my mind
To the very first time
Oh, I felt the touch of somebody’s fingers.
And go, go back in my mind
To the very first time I felt . . .
I go back in my mind
To the very first time
I felt the touch
Of somebody’s fingers.
The first time.
The first time.
Summer summer, days are growing longer
Butterflies, blue skies, and passion gets stronger
Many lovers- try their luck on the playa
Cupids arrows, fly around in the air, everywhere
Love is all, so let's have a ball
Hooray hooray, a sunny day, I live it up, with my baby
Amor amor, encore encore, when you smile at me, pretty
baby
Stay with me till the morning, till the summer sun is
calling
Nanananananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Summer summer, so happy it's summer
With the birds and the bees; the sound of a strummer
Pretty girls, stroll around on the playa
A guitar man, sunny sound fills the air, everywhere
Then we dine and drink summer wine
Hooray hooray, a sunny day, I live it up, with my baby
Amor amor, encore encore, when you smile at me, pretty
baby
Stay with me till the morning, till the summer sun is
calling
Nanananananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Nanananaa
Hooray hooray, a sunny day, I live it up, with my baby
Amor amor, encore encore, when you smile at me, pretty
baby
Stay with me till the morning, till the summer sun is
calling
Stay with me till the morning, till the summer sun is
I'm looking at your photograph
The picture on my wall
Life's too short for memories
I can't have it all
You gave me the run around
So we go our own sweet ways
I'll be making the most of summertime
Crazy nights and lazy days
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of 'em all
The summer can't last too long
One night can seem a lifetime
And I've got no more time to lose
Sunshine on my shoulders
Kissing away my blues, ohh
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long, ohh
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh)
Ohh ohh, oh ohh ohh oh ohh
(Ooo ooh)
Looking to the future
Searching for the girl
Not too much like the last one
Just the prettiest in the world
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
Yea, yea
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
Spring, winter or fall but out of them all
The summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh)
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
Summer can't last too long
Summer can't last too long
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
(Ooo ooh ooh, ooo ooh ooh)
They say that these are not the best of times
But they're the only time I've ever known
And I believe there is a time for meditation
In cathedrals of your own
Now I've 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
And reason coexist with our insanity
And our reason coexist with our insanity
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
wake-up we're stealing cars
1996 1997 1998 we're all waiting for the year 2000
just the smell on the summer can make me fall in love
we go to the parties listen to the DJ's
dance dance dance and go crazy
she's a party queen an she's in party heaven
her clock is stuck on late
got a first name basis at 7-11
hold the slip slide taste the sweat it's salty
irrigation ditch and a swimming hole
Nothin' on earth that'll get me hummin'
Like a heat wave comin' and I'll come runnin'
With her makin' that tan in the broad daylight
And every night is a Saturday night
And everything's right with the summer comin'
I'm the first one standin' in line
For my day in the sun I've been workin'
'Til the sun don't shine
Takin' off my hat leave it to the boys
Get that old work monkey down off my back
All I want's a little peace and noise
Hit the cruise control
Get me back on track
Let my old Ford treat me like a Cadillac
Nothin' on Earth that'll get me hummin'
Like a heat wave comin' and I'll come runnin'
With her makin' that tan in the broad daylight
And every night is a Saturday night
And everything's right with the summer comin'
I'm the first one standin' in line
For my day in the sun I've been workin'
'Til the sun don't shine
When the day gets cookin' gonna grab my toys
And it really doesn't matter which wave we're on
Get to turnin' up them good old boys
Crankin' into the night, by the break of dawn
All the towns are red and I still see blonde
Nothin' on Earth that'll get me hummin'
Like a heat wave comin' and I'll come runnin'
With her makin' that tan in the broad daylight
And every night is a Saturday night
And everything's right with the summer comin'
I'm the first one standin' in line
For my day in the sun I've been workin'
'Til the sun don't shine
For my day in the sun I've been workin'
'Til the sun don't shine
For my day in the sun I've been workin'
'Til the sun don't shine
Summer's comin' to shine
Summer's comin' to shine
She doesn't see the coming fall
She doesn't show no fear at all
Bring on autumn moon or the driving rain
I only hope I see her face again
Everything is gonna be alright when summer comes
The darkest stars will burn so bright when summer comes
We will open up our bodies to the warming of the sun
When summer comes
I will wait in the silence until she returns
To melt the frozen prison round this fool who never learns
Every living thing that's born must have its end
What winter takes away, spring brings back again
Summer doesn't feel the coming frost
And she doesn't yield to pain or loss
Death where is thy victory where is thy string
At the sea in the sand
You were free to my hand
As we touched behind the wind
Left so much outside our skin
You never stay in all four dimensions
You never ever return when you're gone
One more summer in surf city
Solarized recollection
Well, the sun and its rays
Are as one throughout space
And my mind's always on you
First a light, I'll break through
You never stay in all four dimensions
You never ever return when you're gone
One lonely summer in surf city
A solarized recollection
What a night to start writing about this
Tall palms grasp the summer clouds
And anchor the stormy sky to the ground
Outside the ghosts of Jaguars and Impalas
Roll along the storm roads
Leaving damp marks where they had passed
The air it hisses as they go
It stands aside with a decisive sigh
It reaches for this back fleeting
It's far beyond your reach, it holds a place in time,
Somewhere ahead is the back of the line.
I can't relate to your mistakes, awkwardly speaking with nothing to say.
Caught up in your life, excuses are so lame,
You may be different but I'm still the same.
The reasons that you thought, the intention that you caught,
You say things are simple we both know they're not.
You can't let it go,
Whoa.
You can't but I know.
Whoa, Whoa you don't even know.
It's not in what you do, more in what you say.
A million questions asked, the remnants of the past.
You've always been denied, but always by your side.
I've always tried to, to understand you,
the worlds not learning from you.
why do you have to leave me now and go home?
summer, it starts when i see you.
my smile, it parts when i hear you talking to me.
my heart, it beats when it's me who i know you love,
and my mind, it just goes crazy
knowing i'm going to be with you always.
i ask you if you will hold my hand,
and you ask me if i'll kiss you.
you want to know how much i love you,
i say, "well, i guess i'll miss you."
well, i call you on the telephone
'cause you call me all the time,
'cause i need to know the same of you and you the same of me,
that you're still mine.
tell me a story about me and you
and i know how it will end-
happily ever after, just like it will begin.
and i'll show you a happy boy and girl
if you show me a picture of me and you.
when it's time to leave, i'll ask you what to do.
i ask you if you will hold my hand,
and you ask me if i'll kiss you.
you want to know how much i love you,
i say, "Well i guess i'll miss you."
well, i call you back on the telephone
'cause you call me all the time,
'cause i need to know the same of you and you the same of me,
I got a friend in Jesus, he's got a friend in me
He's a bit hung up on god, but we've agreed to disagree
Sometimes when I'm feeling frisky, call you up at home
One time when your boyfriend answered I pretended I was selling mobiles
I'm lovin' this summer scene
I'm diggin' this summer sound
I'd have everything I need
If you could come on around
I'm diggin' this summer scene
I'm lovin' this summer sound
And I would show you what I mean
If you were here with me now
I could be taller, tighter, tanned more than I am
It would take a lot more cash for me to be your money man
But sunshine doesn't justify itself to the moon
I've seen the stars and baby, they're whistlin' my tunes
I'm lovin' this summer scene
I'm diggin' this summer sound
I have everything I need
If you were comin' around
I'm diggin' this summer scene
I'm in love with your summer sound
I'll take you places you've never been
This is my town, oh baby
You're all I need to see me right
I said you're all I need to see me right
Well I'm lovin' your summer scene
And I'm diggin' this summer sound
And I got everything I need
'Cause you're comin' around
Well I'm diggin' this summer scene
I'm in love with your summer sound
I can promise you'll never leave
When you see what I've found
You and me
You're all I need to see me right
'Cause I'm lovin' your summer scene
I'm diggin' this summer sound
You're all I need to see me right
I got everything I need
Now you're coming around
You're all I need to see me right
I'm diggin' this summer scene
I'm in love with my summer sound
You're all I need to see me right
I'll take you where you've never been
Oooh oooh oooh oooh heeeyyy
oooh oooh oooh
Goodbye summer hate to see you go
I wasn't ready for autumn wind to blow
So lonely
We had a fine time holding hands in June
Warm in a sunshine watching love in bloom
Where are you now?
My heart is frozen in this place
waiting for another summer's day
to bring you back my way
ooooooh
hello winter, watch the swirling snow
I didnt have a blanket for the cold
So lonely now
My heart is frozen in this place
waiting for another summer's day
to bring you back my way
oooh oooh oooh
I'll be waiting under the poplar tree
anticipating when you'll come back to me
in the spring ooooh, in the spring yeah
Hello summer kiss from my old friend
been such a long time, tell me how you've been
so lonely now
yeeaahh
My heart is frozen in this place
waiting for another summer's day
to bring you back my way
ooohhh ooohhh
We burned the summer down there's dust when we're around it's done this afternoon we came right back from moon we paint the town red to see what we will get don't care about the past today we'll make it last we came around breaking up the silence that we've found and I'm alive there ain't no place to stay so watch our tailights fade the way it's said and done it leads to where I'm bound.
Sight unseen, sadder seas
Summer song sung all along
Dragged across the seven seas
To the beach come follow me
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Cellophane, a grandma's town
Summer's letters on the ground
Seven pins, the fall begins
When the leaves burn, summer ends
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Summer's gone, can't wipe it off my hands
Write it in the sand, in the sand
Where've my heroes gone today?
Mick and Keith and Willie Mays
Broken windows trails outside
I can take you for a ride
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Summer's gone, can't wipe it off my hands
Write it in the sand, in the sand
In the sand
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Summer's gone, can't wipe it off my hands
Write it in the sand, in the sand
In the sand
In the sand
In the sand
(claude s.)
Every day is going to be your birthday,
Filled with summer in your eyes...
Solitude among the windy moments that we spent;
We will never walk alone...
Tell me, do you know my every wish?
Are they true against the cold of winter days?
Show me what you're hearing in the wind and trees,
And let me in...
Summer will not let us go, so I'll never let it end,
No, I'll never let it go, summer will not let us go...
Sight unseen, sadder seas
Summer song sung all along
Dragged across the seven seas
To the beach come follow me
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Cellophane, a grandma's town
Summer's letters on the ground
Seven pins, the fall begins
When the leaves burn, summer ends
Summer's gone a summer song
You've wasted every day, every day
Summer's gone, can't wipe it off my hands
Write it in the sand, in the sand
Where've my heroes gone today?
Mick and Keith and Willie Mays
Broken windows trails outside
I can take you for a ride
The place they were stranded
The traces that they made
All got washed away
The people before us
The fires that they burned
Somehow all want out
Let's make a decision
Alone I cannot judge
The tide is coming in
It's all for the better
Come with me if you want
'cause I am heading home
But I feel no guilt
I'm doing all the things that I want to do
Do we all believe in contemplation
Do we all believe it?
I put my boat right on the water
I hear the voices calling, but is it you?
Do we all believe in endless summers
Do we all believe in summer?
So do you remember
Or is it what you're told
Who am I to know?
It's all for the better
Come with me if you want
'cause I am heading home

Goodbye summer - I hate to see you go;
I wasn't ready for the Autumn wind to blow.
So lonely.
We had a fine time time holding hands in June.
Warm in the sunshine; watching loving bloom.
Where are you now?
My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summer's day;
to bring you back my way.
Hello winter watch the swirling snow.
I didn't have a blanket for the cold.
So lonely now.
My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summer's day;
to bring you back my way.
I'd be waiting under the pappa tree.
Anticipating, when you come back me - in the spring.
Hello summer - a kiss from my old friend.
Been such a long time; tell me how you've been.
So lonely now - yeah.
My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summers day;
to bring you back my way.
Hello summer - I hate to see you go.
Every night from the balcony
I watch the sun fall to the sea
And I can't wait till summer comes
Drive my old Mercedes
Watch the surfer catch the wave
Oh I can't wait till summer comes
Does it really matter
If I want to spend my life this way
Holding out for summer
Coming closer day by day
Palm trees that touch the sky
Pretty girls just walking by
And I can't wait till summer comes
Ripples on my swimming pool
Sitting drinking just a happy fool
Oh I can't wait till summer comes
Does it really matter
If I want to spend my life this way
Holding out for summer
Coming closer day by day
Summer comes Repeat
And I can't wait till summer comes
Till summer comes Repeat
So you finally fessed up to her
All the lies you said
Now you kindly kiss up to her
But the feeling's dead
Several days have passed now
Darker than any damn cloud now
Liquid sunshine falls down
Harder than all the damn hounds
Tried to give you summer, but I'm winter
Wish I could make you spring, but I fall so hard
So you always did what you wanted
We will be on our own
I will soon let you go now
Things will be all right
Several weeks have passed now
Grayer than any gray cloud
Several weeks have passed now
And it's so hard
And it's so hard to get out of bed
We can make it rain again
I'd feel like I belong
Let's make it cold again
I'm not ready and it's wrong
We can put the outdoor chairs back in and lock the door
Go back to walking all heads down and put our coats back on
The summer's come too soon and I'm still missing you
We can stay at home and draw the blinds and light a fire
Pull the covers high and go to sleep early for hours
Don't want to be too hot and there's no way to cool down
Don't want to sit outside all night or even leave the house
The summer's come too soon and I'm still missing you
I don't want to sit and drink in parks and watch the sun go down
Don't want to put my feet in water and lie back in the grass
I don't want to watch the plains go by or hold anybody's hand
The summer's come too soon and I can't come back to you
The summer's come too soon and I'm still missing you
And if the sun would go down
Stop reminding us how
If we ever had a chance
(feat. Breanne Duren)
Just so long as this moment's full of love so will the leaves stay green
As the winters tide will knock them down from all that they've achieve
Maybe if I love you harder, maybe if we both love harder we can make the
summer last and toss the chills of winter farther.
Make this last, if there's one thing I could ask of you is don't hold back tonight
take what's left, and hold on to it like I do you
Cause we gotta, we gotta find a way, come on baby
Its so obvious we both need this much like the comfort of our kiss, we
need the warm air at our backs or forever will we miss these summer
nights these summer days spent in each others arms
looking for a way for us to stay here not apart
Don't hold back, as the night tries to take all our progress away
Don't hold back, as the summer sun fades into winters cold haze, whoa-oh
Don't hold back, cause we've got to hold on, yeah I've got to hold on to
here we are
and here we are
unbroken
she spends her days somewhere out there in Boston
to think about her life while she's alone
and then she moved out west, out to Austin
to see why cowboys always live alone
here we are unbroken
and here we are much the same
here we are...
oh you're never gonna get it so get it right now
and all we are is all we are
we're the same
I wouldn't lie...
she spent some time out there in California
(and I'd sing)
this could be something incredible
or not worth my time
then she listened to me in disguise
I never knew she paid attention
with Florida on her mind
all I know
I need you back so I can take your breath away
back before the day that all this went away
those times meant everything
I'd give up everything for this now
and all we are is all we are
the same
you got a brand new song and a summer tan
with so much to do I've got fifteen dollars
Green light; go
The memories are blinding
Racing through the photos, I find you
One more time, dancing the night away
I gotta leave right now
But everything's frozen
Eyes wide shut
Run for the roses
Boy meets girl
Now only ghosts remain
Young and in love
I can't go home again
Summer, don't leave me here
Summer, run high and dry
Watching the waves
Come down on all the days of you and I
I'm waiting, you're fading
Like sparks in the dark
Summer, I'll stand for Fall
'Cause without you here
I just can't stand at all
You controlled my love like a remote
Breeze blew in through every single window
Wrapped in sheets together from head to toe
And when the cash ran out
We camped out at bus stops
Begged for change to get to the next spot
Best of times
Caught in the undertow
I fell in love
I can't go home again
Summer, don't leave me here
Summer, run high and dry
Watching the waves
Come down on all the days of you and I
I'm waiting, you're fading
Like sparks in the dark
Summer, I'll stand for Fall
'Cause without you here
I just can't stand at all
Think of you and the night
We spent lighting up the sky
You know we had it all
Won't stop until you're back where you belong
Summer, don't leave me here
Summer, run high and dry
Watching the waves
Come down on all the days of you and I
I'm waiting, you're fading
Like sparks in the dark
Summer, I'll stand for Fall
'Cause without you here
Open up your eyes; see the northern lights, blinking like
a jewel, glittering and cruel
Summer, calls us to feel love, ah ha ha, ah ha ha
Feel love, feel love,
Widows like their wine, coded lines are fine; we are like
two jewels, glittering and cruel
Summer, calls us to feel love, ah ha ha, ah ha ha
In sorrow, songs grow, like rainbows
Here I sit in my room
And I feel like I'm doomed
Cause it's snowing and cold outside
Winter sports are okay
But they don't make my day
And I hate being stuck inside
As I look at the calendar
6 more months
Man I feel like a prisoner,
C'mon!
Summer
Gonna go tubing
Summer
Morning after's worth cruising
Summer
Gotta get moving
In summer
Summer
Flying on a jet-ski
Summer
Flirting with the ladies
Summer
Well everybody's happy
In summer
Now it's spring at that's fine
But it's not the best time
Cause it's windy and raining out
Flying kites is okay
But I'd rather tan anyway
Under sunlight streaming up all around
As I look at the calendar
3 more months
Get set cause we are almost there
C'mon!
Summer
Gonna go tubing
Summer
Morning after's worth cruising
Summer
Gotta get moving
In summer
Summer
Flying on a jet-ski
Summer
Flirting with the ladies
Summer
Well everybody's happy
In summer
Keep finding waves
Scoping down below
Can't wait till spring
And now the months have flown
And time has slipped away
It is time to sing
Now it's
Summer
Gonna go tubing
Summer
Morning after's worth cruising
Summer
Gotta get moving
In summer
Summer
Flying on a jet-ski
Summer
Flirting with the ladies
Summer
Well everybody's happy
And you know that its summertime
When the days grow long and it smells sweet outside
Sit on the steps with some things to spare
Chat with Chomes about the things in our future
And you know that we go crazy
And you know that its summertime
When it stings so hot you can't sleep at night
All our trouble, it's still all the same
But in summertime it just don't seem that way
How do you feel? Do you feel unreal?
Things aren't what they seem in this summer dream
Trouble just can't steal a feeling so unreal
And you know that its summertime
When the days grow long and it smells sweet outside
Sit on the steps with some things to spare
Chat with Chomes about the things in our future
And you know that we go crazy
And you know that its summertime
When it stings so hot you can't sleep at night
All our trouble, it's still all the same
But in summertime it just don't seem that way
How do you feel? Do you feel unreal?
Things aren't what they seem in this summer dream
love me as the summer gone
when eyes were closed and days were long, so long
I burned a torch for you but all the while
somewhere in the haze you lost your smile
don't cast your shadow on my soul, please don't
don't let me sink don't let the darkness in
love me as the winter comes
heart needs a home
let your perfect fingers touch my skin
it's a dark and empty road
when you're alone
it's a dark and empty road
heart needs a home
when you're alone
love me as the springtime comes
let your song drift down the stairs to me
remembering the days i spent with you
waiting here along the way to blue
heart needs a home
it's a dark and empty road
when you're alone
heart needs a home
it's a dark and empty road
Riding round town with all the windows down
Eight track playing all your favorite sounds
The rhythm of the bongos fill the park
The street musicians trying to get a start
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Stretched out on a blanket in the sand
Kids of all ages digging Disneyland
Rapping on the C B radio in your van
We'll give a big ten four to the truckin' man
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
Young boys playin' stick ball in the street
Fire hydrants help to beat the heat
Old man feeding pigeons in the square
Nighttime finds young lovers walkin' there, oh yeah
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
In Atlantic City or out in Malibu
Or anywhere between, I am telling you
When you feel those balmy breezes on your face
Summer time is the best time any place, oh yeah
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
'Cause it's summer, oh yeah, summer time is here, yes it is
Yes, it's summer, my time of year
'Cause it's summer, summer time is here
Yes, it's summer, yes it is, my time of year
Oh, 'cause it's summer, summer time is here
Mrs. Kirby, you shouldn't have
Serve me. Get it.
Entertain the thought of sheer elation.
Hold tight. Tighter.
Immanent dives 'til the sun rises.
Entice. Approach.
Chill to the thought of pure delight.
Venture deeper.
Every moment is it's own occasion.
Sorry, who are you? My memory's hazy.
Thoughts I can't control, they drive me crazy.
Let us relive them tonight.
Sorry, who are you? Seductive lady.
Thoughts I can't control will drive me crazy.
Of course I will set you right.
You'll find out
Abruptly
That you're cold
The water was warm.
Do remember summer?
Maybe you'd like another
Just take a number
and wait your turn, just wait
We light a fire, ignite and burn
Come back. Give it.
Cogitate the fear of raw elation.
Hold tight. Tighter.
Subsequent fibs and compromises.
Aching for more.
Deliberative moves, immaculate planning.
Venture deeper.
Immanent dives 'til the sun arises.
You'll find out
That you're cold.
Mrs. Kirby, you shouldn't have
Serve me. Get it.
Entertain the thought of sheer elation.
Hold tight. Tighter.

The water was warm.
It was a bright and cheerful afternoon,
Towards the end of the sunny month of June,
When the north wind congregates in crowds
The floating mountains of the silver clouds
From the horizon - and the stainless sky
Opens beyond them like eternity.
All things rejoiced beneath the sun, the weeds,
The river, and the cornfields, and the reeds;
The willow leaves that glanced in the light breeze,
Summer is coming
And I hope I feel better by the time it does
Then I could leave my room my cocoon
Find the door and walk out to the sun
Feel like I've moved on
Lessons learnt my mind is feeling calm and so reassured
Yeah things are on the up
I'm on top of the situation i've endured
Took my time to come around
From the day that I was shot down
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do
A Silhouette in the shadows
I drank too much and darkness settled in and drew in me
And oh my bleeding heart did start to repair
And I could clearly see
Open the windows
Serotonin and the vitamins C D and E
Oh let it all sink in to your skin close your eyes
And you can feel the release
Took my time to come around
From the day that I was shot down
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do
Summer is coming
And I hope I feel better by the time it does
Then I could leave my room
And walk out to the sun
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, cos I was somebody new
Oh now I know that
I confused myself with somebody else
I didn't know what to do, know what to do
Tried so many ways to come through for you
Tried to get it right and really improve
And yeah I really wanted to
Took my time to come around
Breathing in and breathing out
Won't you see what I can do
Why do you have to leave me now and go home?
Summer, it starts when I see you.
My smile, it parts when I hear you talking to me.
My heart, it beats when it's me who I know you love,
and my mind, it just goes crazy
Knowing I'm going to be with you always.
I ask you if you will hold my hand,
And you ask me if I'll kiss you.
You want to know how much I love you,
I say, "well, I guess I'll miss you."
Well, I call you on the telephone
'Cause you call me all the time,
'Cause I need to know the same of you and you the same of me,
That you're still mine.
Tell me a story about me and you
And I know how it will end-
Happily ever after, just like it will begin.
And I'll show you a happy boy and girl
If you show me a picture of me and you.
When it's time to leave, I'll ask you what to do.
I ask you if you will hold my hand,
And you ask me if I'll kiss you.
You want to know how much I love you,
I say, "Well I guess I'll miss you."
Well, I call you back on the telephone
'Cause you call me all the time,
'Cause I need to know the same of you and you the same of me,
That you're still mine
It's over now It's all over now...
Rainy daze and the streets are flooded
Walk around with a pair of old shoes on
It's over now It's all over now...
Summer time makes good happen
I'll drive myself insane till next year
How much longer can we be here, stuck out in the cold
Wrapped up in blankets
Summer's walks, feel the warm air rising
Rising higher and higher to fill the sky
Time is fast, yeah it's so far forward
It seems like memories till next year
it's over now It's all over now
it's over now It's all over now...
The summers' gone again
Summer time makes good happen
I'll drive myself insane till next year
How much longer can we be here, stuck out in the cold
Wrapped up in blankets
i can't get the distance of
the feeling growing in me
on this wretched windswept pier
nurse me through
the fallen last notes
picked up from the shores
within my restless heartfelt fears
wait for the summer
feel, feel for the summer
i can't feel this fear fall down this year
can't wait too long this year
can't wait too long
i can't feel this fear fall over
in this way, i wish i was wrong
i can't feel this fear fall over
i can't feel this love
can't wait too long this year
can't wait too long this year
The warmest feeling, the one I've missed oh so much.
Here I sit, face to face, living has become my only crutch.
As the air hits your face, the nights we shared.
Integrating remorse rather here nor there.
Yes, I've seen the light, and honestly it's rather dim.
A group of worried faces, minds filled with blank spaces.
While contributing to white futures, we live the darkest hour.
And the seconds on the clock are ticking, and the higher beings are up high picking,
who's in, and who's out, I've tried my best to be a better man, but I am not a part of this.
The common ground, the common name.
Common thieves filling life with shame.
It's becoming hard to stand for something I'm not quite sure about.
But you've got to realize that I have no fucking doubts.
A bright collision, my own decisions have kept me where I sit today.
A bright collision, my own decisions have kept me where I stand today.
Anxious, Worrying.
Waiting, Worrying.
Anxious, Worrying.
Waiting, Worrying.
I've walked through the deserts only seeking the truth.
I swam through the ocean, yet nothing is new.
My blood is boiling, the skies are blue.
Trying my hardest just to make it through.
You beg, you beg, you beg.
You need to learn respect.
You beg, you beg, you beg.
You need to earn respect.
For somebody with such confidence, you sure do have an unclear head.
This time I will not be forgotten
You're the one thats left here so rotten
This time I am making my way back home
Step up now, don't look back
Walk the lines and avoid the cracks
Take your life in your hands
Mom and dad will never understand
I'll take a stand
Close your eyes, never look away
Your enemies are close on a lovely summer day
Keep you head up, but not up in the clouds
Your friends are still there waiting when you're back down on the ground
All the work and sweat of your hands
To make this life for you and your friends
What started out as all here for one
Has ended up just you and your gun
If you are cash in hand
Now your life is in demand
The pressure's on, don't get old
Heroin and Rock and Roll
You've got to roll with the flow when you're standing good to go
Gliding birds wings, watch them fly
Diving down and climbing high
Shooting stars fly through my sky
Ripe, black cherries taste like wine
And then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
Water drops from honey dew
Decreasing circles from stones I threw
And greasy skin shines in the sun
Today's the day and you're the one
And then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
And when the sun has gone away
And I feel I wanna stay
I taste a raindrop in my mouth
I pick you up and the sky comes down
And still I feel like lying down so still
By the beach I watch the shore,
As emotions come I thought I've never had.
I guess it's not so bad.
This feeling comes about once a year
And I know it in my head;
Everything will finally be okay,
The summers finally here
I say we drink another beer.
Another year complete,
Another year I'm on my feet.
Next year we'll fuck up more.
Here's to scars and rips and sores.
Under sand I start to draw,
Upon the memories of everything I've done
Of all the pain and fun.
And then I wonder why I'm really here
And right now I could care less
I'm too busy making more memories.
The summers finally here I say we drink another beer.
Another year complete, another year I'm on my feet.
Next year we'll fuck up more. Here's to scars and rips and sores.
I'm out of sympathy, so suddenly no subtlety just leave me be.
And don't waste time on me accusing me of everything I couldn't be.
The summers finally here I say we drink another beer.
Another year complete, another year I'm on my feet.
Next year we'll fuck up more. Here's to scars and rips and sores.
By the beach I watch the shore,
As emotions come I thought I've never had.
summer's only weeks away
will you know before it's too late
i'm sinking low
will i move on alone
i'll let you decide
somehow you left a mark
i tried to wash it away from the start
you rubbed off all over me
i tried to scrape it away
but you wouldn't leave
summer's only weeks away
will you know before it's too late
i'm sinking low
will i move on alone
i'll let you decide
i am counting my way to sleep
a million kisses and i'm falling deep
a million kisses and i'm falling deep
falling deep...
summer's only weeks away
will you know before it's too late
i'm sinking low
will i move on alone
i'll let you decide
say you're sorry
say it's fixed
it's not impossible
decide
make you mine
decide
Fresh cut lawn
We're running round with it the sprinklers on
At last it feels like winter's finally gone
And now we're gearing up for fun, ooh
Here that sound
Our feet are tappin' and the music's loud
Slip slop and slappin' drinking cold ones down
While we're soaking up the sun
Come on everybody
Cos it's summer summer summer summer
Our Aussie summer summer summer summer
Our favourite time of year Christmas cheer
Australia Day is nearly here
It's summer, ooh
All aboard
Jump off the jetty skiing all day long
Then throw a line into the dam, ooh
A clear blue sky
Has now set into a balmy night
Corona's chasing down the fish we fried
And as we settle in the sand
Feeling fit and tanned
Chorus
Hot water comes out both our taps
The snakes are under the tank
Singlet and bikini lines
The seatbelt's a branding iron
The bitumen will melt your thongs
The aircon's blasting all night long
That's how you know your in an Aussie
Chorus
10 shirts, 9 skirts, 8 pairs of pants
70 kilos, doing my suitcase packing dance
What do you complain about? You know your camper is immense
Drive all day, boredom wouldn't stand a chance
Very far in a big car with a very cute chauffeur
Further still, time to kill, you drive and I stare
What do you complain about? You know my driving skills impaired
Drive all day, boredom wouldn't even dare
Very very far!
OPSOLAR!
Hartstikke ver!
SURSOLAIR!
Our back sit doesn't lack any modern luxury
Bling Bling! Pow Pow! A stylish pair are we
Nothing to complain about, good living naturally
Boredom is so bored he plays Monopoly
Very very far!
OPSOLAR!
Hartstikke ver!
SURSOLAIR!
Yes, very far
In a mega car
Who cares where we are
When home is in the back seat baby!
Fun is our trademark
Party’s our place to park
Soon it’s gonna get dark, so
Get drunk! Hunk! Home is in the trunk!
Very very far!
OPSOLAR!
Hartstikke ver!
Chumm, gang mer furt mit Sunnecreme
I fahre das Jahr nid as Meer, as Meer
I pfiiffe uf die Ferie
Ufe Ferieverchehr
Der Summer isch us Blei
U niemer isch dehei
U d Bure stöh im Höi
U ir Beiz wird nume gliiret
Chumm, mir fahre mit em Füdle über ds Liintuech
U mit em Finger uf der Charte rund um d Wält
Los, i blybe lieber hie u suuffe no es Bier
U tue der Äschebächer fülle u ds Chopfchüssi zerwüele
U zwar mit dir
Ja, i weiss, z Kanada hets Wald u Holz
Aber dert frisst di der Bär
Im Süde ischs mer eh gäng z heiss
U ds Frässe ligt mer schwär
U was im Mai mal isch nöi gsii
Das isch im Juni scho verbii, scho verbii
Oder emel nümm so früsch wie denn
U bald wird Erste Ougschte gfiiret
Chumm, mir fahre mit em Füdle über's Liintuech
U mit em Finger uf der Charte rund um d Wält
Los, i blybe lieber hie u suuffe no es Bier
U tue der Äschebächer fülle u ds Chopfchüssi zerwüele
U zwar mit dir
Ir Wüeschti si Skorpione
Z Paris weisch nie wo wohne
Am Strand grille d Teutone
Der Stadtwald u die Wiesene
Hei d Hüng scho lang verschisse
U der allerletscht düregheit Fliederwädel
Hei die Bsoffnige abgschrisse
Chumm, mir fahre mit em Füdle über ds Liintuech
U mit em Finger uf der Charte rund um d Wält
Los, i blybe lieber hie u suuffe no es Bier
U tue der Äschebächer fülle u ds Chopfchüssi zerwüele
U zwar mit dir
U zwar mit dir, u zwar mit dir

Chumm, mir fahre mit em Füdle über ds Liintuech
U mit em Finger uf der Charte rund um d Wält
Los, i blybe lieber hie u suuffe no es Bier
In this house surrounded by palm trees
I've lost the picture from my wallet
The picture's mudded and full of kisses
I tried to bite her, for a perfect passion
She's been on the [...] in a plastic suitcase
So I look around for the red-blue roses
Then I try to see her, in the taste of peaches
I know she's waiting for my summer letters
It's my perfect summer
My perfect summer
Out in the summer, I know I'm a seeker
Watch out the window, I'm sleeping and dreaming
Back of a postcard, I know she's been waiting
I know she's waiting for my summer roses
It's my perfect summer
My perfect summer
It is my perfect summer
We had sandwiches and apple juice
On that sweet afternoon in the summer
And you only wanted me to play
You had no time to waste in the summer
So you only ate half
I had to laugh
There will always be time for scolding
You're only getting older
So I'm holding my tongue, keeping my peace
It runs deep and wide
I'm wading right in, playing your games
And I'm running the full length of summer by your side
Making funny mirror faces
I caught you looking at me
Looking at your hair but you don't care
It's only there for me to measure
How short the days are long
How fast the days of slow go away
So I'm wading right in, playing your games
And I'm running the full length of summer
Running the full length of summer
Running the full length of summer by your side
How short the days are long
How fast the days of slow go away
So I'm holding my tongue, keeping my peace
It runs deep and wide
And I'm wading right in, and playing your games
And I'm running the full length of summer
Running the full length of summer
Running the full length of summer by your side
How short the days are long
How fast the days of slow go away
I know in the summer
I'm wading right in, and I'm playing in the summer
Oh, my love here I am standing by in the summer
How short the days are long
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
Brown skin and singing and dance (ohhoho)
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
We're gonna party as much as we can
Hey-yeah ooh hey-yeah
Summer jam alright
Hey-yeah ooh hey yeah
Tonight heart is wearing prouder skirts
Real tight temperature is rising
Feelin' real hot in the heat of the night
Midnight the party was stopped
into the moonlight
I'm scoping out the honeys with the
light eyes
Be with me tonight
Can't get you out of my mind
I can't lie
Cause a girl like you is so hard to find
I'm waiting for the day to make you mine
Cause I can't take it
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
Brown skin and singing and dance (ohhoho)
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
We're gonna party as much as we can
Hey-yeah ooh hey-yeah
Summer jam alright
Hey-yeah ooh hey yeah
Moonlight cruisin' down the boulevard
Store light watching your body's tight
Alright looking kinda freaky to me
Can't get you out of my mind
I can't lie
Cause a girl like you is so hard to find
I'm waiting for the day to make you mine
Cause I can't take it
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
Brown skin and singing and dance (ohhoho)
This ain't nothing but a summer jam
We're gonna party as much as we can
Hey-yeah ooh hey-yeah
Summer jam alright
Some of the happiest days are when the sun rays cascade
Over your back in the most naturally placid of ways
You don't have to ask whether perhaps it'll rain
And the centigrade never strays past twenty eight
It's fantastically great kicking back with your mates
And knowing no, you don't have to act to your age
You can snack on a Flake or take a basket of cakes
But make sure you've got some factor eight splashed on your face
And the ladies make daisies attached in a chain
While the lads entertain them with a basketball game
And then after we're knackered and the match has been played
Grab a glass of lemonade and relax in the shade
We'll bask and just laze in the grass's green blades
And sit back and just gaze at the paths of the planes
Nothing matters today, you can chatter and play
Playful antics under blankets of immaculate haze
Once upon a summer
The sun plays across the lawn
Once upon a summer
The air is sweet and warm
Once upon a summer
Heavenly and calm
Once upon a summer
It's never been this fun
It's ace when you're tipsy and playing with a frisbee
There ain't been better days in the pages of history
And though your hay fever itches and makes you be sniffly
It's blatantly plain that you'll savour and miss these
Great times when they're gone, days lying in the sun
Bathing, misbehaving and playfighting for fun
They might have been some of the days of your life that you'll always
Be reminded of when your time to pass away finally comes
And as the day becomes night and the sun goes down
The shadows grow slow and cloak round your home town
There's no sound but the bees and the birds
And slowly but certainly the season returns
You turn down to the ground and there's leaves on the earth
Turning brown and allowing the trees to rebirth
There's a breeze in the air and it breathes through your hair
And that's it - summer leaves for the year
Summer's come and gone
The day's no longer young
Summer's come and gone
Just in time for summer, the war is over
No fighting overseas, teenage sex Amelia, marijuana
I can hardly breathe
Underbuilt communities are overcoming responsibility
In the sun with a heavy heart, a heavy heart
Just in time for summer, the war is over
No fighting overseas, bushes in the pavement keep on growing
Coming into trees
Positivity in communities is overcoming negativity
In the sun with a heavy heart, with a heavy heart
Just in time for summer, the war is over
No fighting overseas, sex can't stop the people
Deny the pleasure of reading 'War and Peace'
Keep on changing leads, changing leads, changing leads
In the sun with a heavy heart, a heavy heart
Just in time for summer, the war is over
No fighting overseas
In the sun with a heavy heart, a heavy heart, a heavy heart
Just in time for summer, the war is over
No fighting overseas, teenage sex Amelia, marijuana
I can hardly breathe
Underbuilt communities are overcoming responsibility
In the sun with a heavy heart, a heavy heart
A heavy heart, a heavy heart
A heavy heart, a heavy heart
A heavy heart, a heavy heart
She knocks down my walls
She strips down my soul
She gets in my heart
And she takes control
It's a sweet surrender
A holy rush
And I find salvation
In every touch
She loves me like summer
And she moves me like thunder
And her kiss is the sunshine
That breaks through the soft rain
She's the blue sky I'm under
She loves me like summer
Wanna live in this moment
Wanna lay here all day
'Cause when she's in my arms
The world slips away
It's where I wanna stay
'Cause she loves me like summer
And she moves me like thunder
And her kiss is the sunshine
That breaks through the soft rain
She's the blue sky I'm under
She loves me like summer
And there ain't no way I'll ever let her go
And she knows I won't
There ain't no way I'll ever let her go
She's burned so deep down into my soul
And all I know
Is there ain't no way I'll ever let her go
Borrowed
I think this year has left me borrowed
Tomorrow I'm waking up the sun
I'm dragging the lake slow
Follow this life line of memories
Tangled by the water side
That's where my youth drowned
It fell by the wayside
I'm not counting the greys on my head
I'm calling them silver linings instead
It doesn't matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
You will always be the leaf to my tree
But this year fall came
And I never saw spring
It fell by the wayside
I'll keep my wisdom like a tooth
I'm spinning in the black hole of youth
It doesn't matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
My mind is trained to
I want to find dead bodies with my closest friends
And to long for DC at two AM under Lincoln
Let's stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
Let's stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
It doesn't matter
We take off our shoes and pull out pieces of the lawn
While people light off fireworks
Then they set off car alarms
My mind is trained to
I want to find dead bodies with my closest friends
And to long for DC at two AM under Lincoln
So let's stay close like the monuments
Carve our names in stone
Let's stay close like the monuments
Summer days past
Lying in the warm grass
I was young then
We were two like the wind
Always rolling
Never really touching down
Not aware yet
Things would complicate themselves
Summer days here
Now I see it clear
I am older now
I have learned how
To close up
To deny us
Was in love once
Now I bury us
So please remind me
Why I shouldn't leave you
It's so hard to change
When you remain the same
Summer can wait
I must deviate
I can't keep you next to me
One too many times
Stabbed by your knife
Still my heart fights
With my rational mind
Summer days past
We were young then
( verse 1 )You know your smile reminds me of a setting
sun Before the nights just begun
And your eyes are so deep, and full of love
Like shining stars from above
I wish you a home from your heart
And may you never get hurt
Don't let anyone ever tell
you what your worth
Remember to follow your dreams
Whatever they may be
Just as long as they make you happy
( Pre-chorus )
Hold onto your dreams
if it seems that they are so far away
If there's one thing I've learned
Is that the tables will always turn
I'll see you in Summer
( Chorus )
I'll see you in Summer
I'll see you in Summer
I'll see you in Summer
( Verse 2 )
Because you know that I will miss you
Wherever you go
You know I will always make time
to say hello
Remember to hold onto your friends
The old and the new
They make the road easier to get through
And may you love with all your heart
And may it never break
Find someone who gives you more
than they take
( Pre-chorus )
Hold onto your dreams
if it seems that they are so far away
If there's one thing I've learned
Is that the tables will always turn
I'll see you in Summer
( Chorus )
I'll see you in Summer
I'll see you in Summer
I'll see you in Summer
( Bridge )
Wicked winds show you true friends
Like trees we will all have to bend
Storms will rise, but I know you'll do fine
Don't waste your time
Because time has a way, of flying bye..byyye
( Chorus )
I'll see you in Summer
I'll see you in Summer
They say there's fewer sounds sweeter than the tone of children's laughter
It captures men's hearts - proof life ends happily ever after
And at eight years old, in the sunshine, a princess
Held access to the fairy tale to be her sole witness
Hop scotch on the block in the hot Chicago sun
Double Dutch, selling lemonade til the day was done
Summer's world shone bright, despite never knowing her biological
Parents that placed her in a dumpster near the hospital
Nurse Jones raised her right, and did all that was possible
For a woman of sixty-five that had her own life's obstacles
Provided all she could afford, "a Ford" pickup and a tenement
Clean clothes, food, medicine, all bought for Summer's betterment
Hesitant to let her out on the sidewalk alone
For fear of what was on the corner a few steps from home
But seasons change and it seems to have shown
She couldn't protect Summer when she was full grown
Summer breathed Winter in the chasms of her nose
Spring up for passing seconds, Fall down from an overdose
Sixteen, prom queen, pristine, stayed clean
Never mixing with the vagabonds that rolled with dope fiends
But the winds of autumn came, and like the colors that changed
Summer's interests, hobbies, and priorities re-arranged
Peer pressure never phased, but validation was a problem
In order to stay on top she had to go to the bottom
To compromising situations, giving body and soul
For the goal of keeping Nurse Jones warm in the cold
After six months of fighting, Miss Jones moved on
Took a deep breath, winked at Summer, closed her eyes, and was gone
And Summer tried to stay strong, stayed in school, fixed her focus
But unpaid bills culminated to an eviction notice
Now homeless and hopeless, wandered - darkness on the streets
Looking desperate for a job to get her back on her feet
But no one hired a 16-year old dropout with a halo
So she continued the march with the other broken-winged angels
Summer breathed Winter in the chasms of her nose
Spring up for passing seconds, Fall down from an overdose
Now Summer's slowly dying - see Summer's soul was trying
To break out of the bonds, become a sun again, shining
21, collapsed veins, powdered bloody nose, a shattered frame
The remnants of her memories keep her mildly sane
Summer's pastime was passin time by talking to herself
Amidst the heckles of the passers-by , her muffled cries for help
Fell onto deaf ears, out of the mouth of babes
Came the echoed only, lonely cries no one wanted to save
Though Summer's stomach showed no signs of having amniotic fluid
Third trimester rolled around, and through it all she was clueless
Until she woke up in the same hospital she was abandoned
Being told "Push" by doctor's and the voice in her head that demanded
She make it through to see the splinter in the dark
A new start, new purpose, new woman, same heart
And through her next 50 years of life, 'til her eventual death
There was never a sound sweeter than her child's first breath
And the Fall of Summer into Winter's darkest of days
two hearts a secret place
a frail tower holds my faith
and love
when you are here
in the gardens we waited long
so lost and far from dawn
but you
you are here with me
when the waves are rolling high
do you feel the same
when darkness clouds the skies
I feel the pain so deep inside
I will call you
to dream a summer
for the night to come
will you be my haven
for the night so long
give me dreams of summer
for the night to come
will you be my haven
for the night is long
burning bright dancing slow
there's a tale still untold
and you
you are here with me
there's a room in the city of light
stole a kiss buying time
and you
you're not here
and the stakes been raised to high
do you feel the same
when darkness clouds the light
I'm falling blinded
here tonight
Summer's coming over my way
I waited all my life for this day
Summer's coming over my way
It's gonna be a mighty time
Baby better get outta bed
'cause summer's coming over our head
baby better get outta bed
