THIS SUMMER
(Difford / Tilbrook)

Brain engages mouth
Mouth expresses thoughts
of how we shared those fun fair rides
beneath the brightness of the night

Time can crowd the head
like a sardine can
The summer than began to blur
has put us on the calendar

This summer there won’t be a cloud in the sky
I’m so made up I feel I could take off and fly
This summer we’ve pulled all the sheets off the bead
I’m so happy I can’t get you out of my head
This summer I am so in love with you

Mornings pass us by
as curtains hide the sun
Nights we spent out of control
like two flags wrapped around a pole

This summer there won’t be a cloud in the sky
I’m so made up I feel I could take off and fly
This summer we’ve pulled all the sheets off the bead
I’m so happy I can’t get you out of my head
This summer I am so in love with you

I see the helter skelter lights
and hear the music in the breeze
and while we’re skimming stones tonight
it feels so good that you’re with me

This summer there won’t be a cloud in the sky
I’m so made up I feel I could take off and fly
This summer we’ve pulled all the sheets off the bead
I’m so happy I can’t get you out of my head
There’s no reason to ever feel lonely again
This summer I am so in love with you
I’m so in love with you
