When you trust your friends with no reason not ta (nada) |
|
The joy I name shall not be tamed |
|

|
One day in your life. |
|
|
|
When the cool of the pond makes you drop down on it |

|
The time is here for one more year |
|
And that summer feeling is gonna haunt you |
|
One day in your life. |

|

|
|
|
And if you wait until your older |
|
A sad resentment will smoulder one day |
|
And Then that summer feeling is gonna haunt you |
|
And that summer feeling's gonna taunt you |
|
And then that summer feeling is gonna hurt you |
|
One day in your life. |
|
|
|
When even fourth grade starts looking good |
|
Which you hated, |
|
And first grade's looking good too, |
|
Overrated, |
|
And you boys long for some little girl |
|
That you dated |
|
Do you long for her of for the way you were, |
|
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you |
|
One day in your life. |
|
|
|
When the Oldsmobile has got the top down on it |
|
When the catamaran has got the drop down on it |
|
When the flat of the land has got the crop down on it |
|
Some things were good before and some things never were |
|
But that summer feeling is gonna haunt you |
|
One day in your life. |
|
|
|
Well when your friends are in town and they've got time |
|
for you |
|
When you were never hanging around and they don't |
|
ignore you |
|
When you say what you will and they still adore you |
|
Is that not appealing, it's that summer feeling. |
|

|
When you're hanging around the park with the water |
|
fountain |
|
And there's the little girl with the dirty ankles cuz |
|
she's |
|
On the swings, you know, and all the dust is kicking up |

And you remember the ankle locking |
|
And the way she flirted with you |
|
For all this time, how come? |

|
One day in your life. |
|
You'll throw away everything for it. |

Well when the playground that just was all dirt |
|
Comes haunting. |
|
And that little girl that called you a flirt |
|
Memory comes taunting |
|
You pick these things apart they're not that appealing |
|
You put them together and you'll get this certain |
|
feeling |

And that summer feeling is gonna haunt you |
|
One day in your life. |
