They always said let summer run it's course You and I are sitting on my front porch Wondering why tired days will not retire on their own The sun starts to nod it's head The clouds are begging it to go to bed They say, it's fine, the moon will shine all night She said I'll hold you up 'til summer And after that you're on your own And don't you dare let me down 'Cause I'm not sure that I can handle it All alone We've got the wind in our sails And the summer at our backs We're at the top of the world And there's no turning back And we sing Oh, Oh We always said let's try to brave the heat You and I go dancing in the summer streets Wondering why tired feet will not quit moving to the beat The clouds start to sing along And soon the moon says hey I know this song We say, that's right, and dance all through the night We'll catch the summer breeze in our sails And save it for the coldest nights we'll ever brave
