before the summer dies

we leave footprints

in the sands of time just

waiting on the tide to

come and wash us out

well umbrellas folded up

and waiting

roller-coaster taking

one more trip around

before the summer dies

before they shut it down

before the boardwalk turns

into a ghost town

before you break my heart

before they kill the lights

let's keep us alive

just one more night

before the summer dies

yeah

before the summer dies

kiss me

like this is the last time

but swear it's not the last time

you'll be in my arms

lie to me

tell me that you'll come back

and i want to believe that

we won't fall apart

before the summer dies

before they shut it down

before the boardwalk turns

into a ghost town

before you break my heart

before they kill the lights

let's keep us alive

just one more night

before the summer dies

before the summer dies

woah-oh-oh-oh

woah-oh-oh-oh

woah-oh-oh-don't let

go-oh-oh-oh

before the summer dies

before they shut us down

before the boardwalk turns

into a ghost town

before you break my heart

before they kill the lights

let's keep us alive

just one more night

before the summer dies

before the summer dies

before the summer dies

yeah

before the summer dies
