Summertime

Yeah, let's go!

Listen, some people wind up

With the one that they adore

In a heart-shaped hotel room

It's what a heart is for

The bubble floats so madly

Will it stay sky-high?

Hello partner, kiss your name bye-bye

Ooh sometimes

Romantic Piscean seeks an angel in disguise

Chinese-speaking girlfriend, big brown eyes

Liverpudlian lady, sophisticated male

Hello partner, tell me love can't fail

And it's you and me in the summertime

We'll be hand-in-hand down in the park

With a squeeze and a sigh

And that twinkle in your eye

And all the sunshine banishes the dark...

Some people wind up

With the one that they abhor

In a distant hell-hole room

This third World War

But all there I see is films with colourless despair

Meant angry young men with immaculate hair

Ooh sometimes

"Get up" a voice inside says

"There's no time for looking down

Only a Pound a word

And you're talking to the town"

But how do you coin the phrase though

That will set your soul apart

Just to touch a lonely heart

It's just you and me in the summertime

We'll be hand-in-hand down in the park...

With a squeeze and a sigh

And the twinkle in your eye

And all the sunshine banishes the dark...

And it's you I need in the summertime

As I turn my brown skin red...

Two peas from the same pod, yes we are

Or have I read too much fiction?

Is this how it happens...?

Is this how it happens?

How does it happen?

Is this how it happens?

Is this how it happens?

(Now, right now)
