Lyrics
That Summer
By Steve Burdette & Randy Bishop (ASCAP)
©2016, Rokit Music
Remember, that summer
We played in the sand
I took your hand, and we discovered
That the warmth of the sun filled our souls
No, we thought we'd never grow old
That sweet summer
Days of wonder
We took walks in the park
Till way after dark, that summer
You let me steal my first kiss
Life was such bliss, but no wonder
'Cause we stood under the moon
Saw the bright stars of June
That sweet summer
BRIDGE:
Yeah, the sunshine was gone too soon
How I long for those sweet days of June
When our youth was not misspent
'Cause we explored our innocence
That magic summer
Our summer, yes that summer
Gone too soon
We'd have the radio on by the pool
Both of us dancing like fools
And runnin' around like the wind
You chasing me till you could push me in
And when I'd take that big dive
Man, I felt so alive
When it was summer, that summer
Thank goodness for summers, like ours
Oh summer
That sweet summer, of ours
