The Summer

Lyrics

Ey!
It was a bold move
But it’s all good
Yeah it’s all cool
It was a bold move
Now it’s smooth sailing
Our soul groove
It was a bold move
But it paid off
Now it’s all cool
It was a bold move
Now it’s smooth sailing
Our soul groove

Now we’re here in the after
We look back with laughter
At the way life used to be
I said, “Babe, can I have a word?
Now, what you doing with her
When you know you should be with me?”

Doo, doo doo doo
It was the summer we never had
Just me and you
I guess as summers go it ain’t so bad

I remember it felt like
Yeah
Ooh
Ooh ooh
I remember it felt like
Yeah
Ooh
Ooh ooh

It was a bold move
But I’d risk it all
To keep all of you
And when the sun sets
I’ve got not regrets
Except maybe two
I shoulda held your hand sooner on our first date
Shoulda kissed you once more at the station gate
But with you I never feel like it’s too late
It’s like we can be the makers of our own fate

We don’t need no silver lining
Rain or shine
It’s all divine with you
Don’t need no silver lining
Rain or shine
It’s always fine with you

Doo doo doo
It was the summer we never had
Just me and you
I guess as summers go it ain’t so bad

I remember it felt like
Yeah
Ooh
Ooh ooh
I remember it felt like
Yeah
Ooh
Ooh ooh

Ey!
This one’s for
The summer we never had
Oh, who needs more?
How can I be anything but glad?
I remember it felt like
Yeah (yeah)
I remember it felt like
Yeah (yeah)
