The Summer Lyrics

	If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house
	And pour it loose through your garden
	So the hinges on your windows would rust and colour
	Like the boats pulled up on the sand for the summer
	And your sweet clean clothes would go stiff on the line
	And there’d be sand in your pockets and nothing on your mind

	But every year it gets a little bit harder
	To get back to the feeling of when we were fifteen
	And we could jump in the river upstream
	And let the current carry us to the beginning where
	The river met the sea again
	And all our days were a sun-drenched haze
	While the salt spray crusted on the window panes

	( We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer )*3


	And I’ll remember that summer as the right one
	The storms made the pavement steam like a kettle
	And our first goodbye always seemed like hours
	In the car park in between my house and yours
	And if the summer holds a song we might sing forever
	Then the winter holds a bite we’d never felt before

	( We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer )*3

	But time is like the ocean
	You can only hold a little in your hands
	So we swim before we’re broken
	Before our bones become
	Black coral on the sand

	( We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer )*3

	If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house
	And pour it loose through your garden

	end.

	If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house
	And pour it loose through your garden
	So the hinges on your windows would rust and colour
	Like the boats pulled up on the sand for the summer
	And your sweet clean clothes would go stiff on the line
	And there' d be sand in your pockets and nothing on your mind

	But every year it gets a little bit harder
	To get back to the feeling of when we were fifteen
	And we could jump in the river upstream
	And let the current carry us to the beginning where
	The river met the sea again
	And all our days were a sundrenched haze
	While the salt spray crusted on the window panes

	We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer 3


	And I' ll remember that summer as the right one
	The storms made the pavement steam like a kettle
	And our first goodbye always seemed like hours
	In the car park in between my house and yours
	And if the summer holds a song we might sing forever
	Then the winter holds a bite we' d never felt before

	We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer 3

	But time is like the ocean
	You can only hold a little in your hands
	So we swim before we' re broken
	Before our bones become
	Black coral on the sand

	We should be living like we lived that summer
	I wanna live like we live in the summer 3

	If I could bottle up the sea breeze I would take it over to your house
	And pour it loose through your garden
