lyrics

Summer Dreams

Verse 1

The sun shines down on me,
throughout the afternoon
My thoughts have wandered far away
My hands dig through the sand,
Feels good to have no plans
It feels so nice, I want to stay

Pre-chorus

Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side

But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide

Chorus 1

As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by……………...... (drifts on by – 2 x )

Verse 2

The breeze felt upon my face,
it cools my heated skin,
I close my eyes without delay
Castles are made of sand,
by the young who understands
What it means to be happy throughout the day

Pre-chorus

Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side

But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide

Chorus 2

As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by……………......(drifts on by – 2 x )

Pre-chorus

Though the sun feels warm,
I feel cold inside, without you by my side

But soon my thoughts will drift back to you,
with the changing of the tide

Chorus 3

As the summer drifts on by…………………… drifts on by………… (drifts on by – 2 x )…......
