Song of Summer

everybody wants to write the song of summer
be the melody that's circling your ears
define the kind of love that ends in heartbreak
as the sun gets warm every year

everybody wants to stand there in the sunlight
leave their baggage in the gutter by the street
absolutely be the furthest thing from no one
let's go disappear
in the light keeping us tied to love

don't change your mind
i want to slip into the season
making it the reason to find
and i don't want you to go changing
slip through in the season
making it the reason to find

everybody wants to write the song of summer
mass depression takes some time off every year
be the ones who might fantastically discover
that our brokenness
is a lie keeping us tied to love

don't change your mind i want you
swept up in the season
we needed there to be reasons in life
and don't you go changing your mind
because we're ragged and believing
we're making it the season to find

our love that will keep us all believing in time
our love that will keep us all believing in time
our love that will keep us all believing in time
our love that won't lie

everybody wants to write the song of summer
roll the windows down just to feel the breeze
was radio the only thing that ever mattered
that we let into our dreams

everybody wants to stand there in the starlight
to be the ones who're simply glad we're in control
the nights that held us back from our escaping

take a lover's toll
every year
take a lover's toll
every year
