Close your eyes so you don't feel them
They don't need to see you cry
I 
can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
To sing this 
summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed, it's true
Someone 
said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt, in you

* You were 
there for summer dreamin'
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find 
your freedom
For eternity
(For eternity)

Yesterday when we were 
walking
You talked about your ma and dad
What they did that made you 
happy
What they did that made you sad
We sat and watched the sun go 
down
Picked a star before we lost, the moon
Youth is wasted on the 
young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon

[Repeat 
*]

For eternity (aah, aah, aah, aah, aah)

Sing this summer 
serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed, it's true
Youth is wasted 
on the young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon

[Repeat 
*]

You were there for summer dreamin'
And you are a friend 
indeed
And I know you find your freedom
Eventually

For eternity 
(aah, aah, aah, aah, aah)

For eternity (aah, aah, aah, aah, aah)
