Summersong

Sometimes summertime brings us better times.
And sometimes it leads us astray.
These are finer times, drinking in the rose and wine.
We’re not about to fall on our faces.
Yeah, we’re just young things starting out.
It’s a big world that’s calling our names.
We’re gonna go for all of the glory.
Never gonna give up the chasing.

And she is all the things that summer brings.
And she wants to spend it with me.
She’s so smart it warms my heart and I don’t have to play a part.
And that’s just the way it should be.

Sometimes dreaming can seem like a waste of time.
Sometimes it eats up your days.
There are friends of mine who sit and dream all the time.
And just stay stuck in one place.
But we know better than that.
We’ve got to get while the gettin’ is great.
We’re gonna take a ride ‘round the world.
‘Cos we can’t sit here and wait..

And she is all the things that summer brings.
And she wants to spend it with me.
She smiles as good as Hollywood and laughs just like a young star should.
And that’s just the way it should be.

When I go to bed at night and turn out all the lights.
There’s nothing but me and my thoughts.
I think of her smiling face and I’m in a better place.
I’m thankful for all that I’ve got.
Yeah, we’ve got to take on this big world.
We’ve got to take it our way.
We’re gonna go for all of the glory and
Never ever give up the chasing.

And she is all the things that summer brings.
And she says she’ll spend it with me.
She’s so smart it warms my heart and I don’t have to play a part.
And that’s just the way it should be.

And she is all the things that summer brings.
And she says she’ll spend it with me.
She smiles as good as Hollywood and laughs just like a young star should.
And that’s just the way it should be.

But she is gone again somewhere with him.
And I’m left only with me.
But hey, that’s okay. The sun will shine another day.
Some things you have to let be.
