The Friday sun bears down again 

As we drive with our friends 

And on these longest days we spend 

All the time trying to pretend 

That our stories could be true 

Our chance to be cool 

The setting sunset says the day is through 

If only we knew... 

And we all sit around here in our home town 

Listen to the waves as they all crash down 

And watch the fire as it slowly burns away 

Glowing embers fly across the sky 



* Here by my side, in my summer, our last summer 

The world passes by in my summer, our last summer 

The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other 

Alive to watch it all, the view from our last summer 

The view from our last summer



We trace the sun across the sky 



And we laugh till we cry 

Always so hard to say goodbye (good bye) 

And we all sit round here in our home town 

It's so good like this, these are times we'll miss 

The memories, I hope they'll never fade

Glowing embers lie across the sky 



[Repeat *]



I would stop time to stay with you 

I would stop time so we don't move 

I would stop time 

I would stop time 

I would stop time to keep you 



Here by my side, in my summer, our last summer 

The world passes by in my summer, our last summer 

The light makes shadows fall, surrounded by each other 

Alive to watch it all, the view from our last summer
