Lyrics:
these moments to remember
Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years
Was wandering
We walked a steady line
When all our friends
Were wavering
We kept on trying
Now we're always suffering
Already lost
Always
This is joy, this is summer
Keep alive, stay alive
Got your metal on, we're alone
Making sweet love, takin' time
'Til God strikes us
That's
pieces
We always knew they would both
Find a way to get by
That's all I heard about
Brenda and Eddie
Can't tell you more than I
Told you already
Another long summer's come and gone
I don't know why it always ends this way
The boardwalk's quiet and the carnival rides
Are as empty as my broken
When winter comes
And food is scare
We'll warn our toes to stay indoors
When summer's gone
We're gonna fly away
And find the sun
When winter
of the world.
I recall on summer night at a party
We were sophomores hangin' out by the lake
I got off on some wine with a waitress
Sonny had a girlfriend
tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pulling while we're tillin' up the land
And thanks for the memory
Of summers by the sea, dawn in Waikiki
We had a pad in London but we didn't stop for tea
How cozy it was
Now since our breakup
of
You and summer nights*
I remember playin by the shoreline
Before the fall when we had it all at our fingertips
Buildin castles in the driftin sand
Bus stop, wet day
She's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stops, bus goes
She stays, love grows
Under my umbrella
All that summer we
.
Thinking it's summer, but there are only clouds in the sky.
When I think about what we wasted, makes me sad,
We never appreciated what we had.
Now I'm
"'Cause we have something more,
Oh, we have something more,
Than a summer lo-ove.
I will remember,
As leaves are falling,
The way you held my hand,
all my cool
I guess we're ready for the summer
I like us better when we're intertwined (ah-ha)
The way you touch me got me losin' my senses (hey)
a pretty bad state for a state to be in
Instead of government we had a stage
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
Instead of help we were given
And when we're gone long gone
The only thing that will have mattered
Is the love that we shared
And the way that we cared
When we're gone, long gone
way past dark
It's too late to sleep now
The valley's wide awake
The early train's pulling out
Too wired to come down
It's the last day of summer
on a new life
If it's this good way down here
Then what's it like up there high in heaven?
On a night like tonight
Are we just two stars passin' by
stepped out of a rainbow
Golden hair shining like moonglow
Warm lips, soft as her soul
Sitting here by me, now
She's here by me
All summer long we
Instead of government we had a stage
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
Instead of help we were given a crowd
She didn't say much, but she said it loud
Summer,
With nothing to regret.
And we were happy,
That moment in our lives,
And through my sadness
That happiness survives!
And I'll remember,
at all
But I'm in love with you again
We're all in the halfway house
Or so it sometimes seems
Trying to find the truth inside
Instead of getting by
breakfast
Make love all through the day
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can go our separate ways
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can't
the brakes jammed down
Slow motion, sliding head-on
And then we were that close
Remember them summer days
When we took whatever came our way
And get away
Hey
