They always said let summer run it's course
You and I are sitting on my front porch
Wondering why tired days will not retire on their own
The sun starts to nod it's head
The clouds are begging it to go to bed
They say, it's fine, the moon will shine all night

She said I'll hold you up 'til summer
And after that you're on your own
And don't you dare let me down
'Cause I'm not sure that I can handle it
All alone

We've got the wind in our sails
We're at the top of the world
And there's no turning back
And we sing Oh, Oh

We always said let's try to brave the heat
You and I go dancing in the summer streets
Wondering why tired feet will not quit moving to the beat
The clouds start to sing along
and soon the moon says hey I know this song
we say, that's right, and dance all through the night

We'll catch the summer breeze in our sails
And save it for the coldest nights we'll ever brave
