| There’s a time that’s always so fitting
|
| Where the sites and sounds were just the beginning
|
| I didn’t know that years ago I’d find myself
|
| In ways that warped my brain
|
| And I knew that everything would be better
|
| If we only had more time
|
| But in the moment I found simpler things
|
| Yeah, in the moment I found mine
|
| But it’s a long way down after the other
|
| Twelve long months until I recover
|
| It’s a long way down after the other one
|
| Those days are long gone but we can all pretend
|
| Our love was so strong
|
| Let’s do it all again and make new scars
|
| We’ll fly into the night like shooting stars
|
| Faster, go faster so we can finally breathe
|
| Turn up the stereo and let us all sing
|
| Our favorite songs, the ones that keep reminding us
|
| That we were the kids of the summer
|
| Those days, I remember them hitting like a tidal wave
|
| Wrapped up in a pretty little face
|
| Covered me entirely with sun and rain through summer days
|
| And oh, my heart grew bigger back then somehow
|
| I got the feeling I wanted but it’s all gone now
|
| Thought it would last forever inside my chest
|
| Let’s keep it beating together
|
| But it’s a long way down after the other
|
| Twelve long months until I recover
|
| It’s a long way down after the other one
|
| Those days are long gone but we can all pretend
|
| Our love was so strong
|
| Let’s do it all again and make new scars
|
| We’ll fly into the night like shooting stars
|
| Faster, go faster so we can finally breathe
|
| Turn up the stereo and let us all sing
|
| Our favorite songs, the ones that keep reminding us
|
| That we were the kids of the summer
|
| The summer
|
| The summer
|
| It was all ours
|
| And I knew that everything would be better
|
| If we only had more time
|
| But in the moment I found simpler things
|
| Yeah, in the moment I found mine
|
| But it’s a long way down after the other
|
| Twelve long months until I recover
|
| It’s a long way down after the other one
|
| Those days are long gone but we can all pretend
|
| Our love was so strong
|
| Let’s do it all again and make new scars
|
| We’ll fly into the night like shooting stars
|
| Faster, go faster so we can finally breathe
|
| Turn up the stereo and let us all sing
|
| Our favorite songs, the ones that keep reminding us
|
| That we were the kids of the summer
|
| The summer
|
| The summer
|
| It was all ours
|
| We were the kids of the summer |
