hey
ooh
the only times i ever reminisce
are those teenage years and my very first kiss
summertime was that time for me
sun-bleached sand hit up by the sea
hey
ooh
i could dream and i could fly
i could watch the world go by
the universe for me to see
right here now is the place to be
take me back to where i come from
where the skies are blue and the sun is strong
spend all day and-a all night long
we'll drift away to the summer song
hey
ooh
turn on up that radio
'cause west coast style is the way to go
around a fire on a sunny beach
a slow dance in the summer heat
take my hand
let's jump and swim
there's nothing goin' on but the love we're in
a memory of her embrace
is a melody time can't erase
take me back to where i come from
where the skies are blue and the sun is strong
spend all day and-a all night long
we'll drift away to the summer song
hey
ooh
i keep on wishin'
'cause i know what i could be missin'
and i ain't leavin'
if i just keep on believin'
i could stay here in this warm
chill
sun-kissed day
far away
down in cali' south
yeah
to the golden gate
take me back to where i come from
where the skies are blue and the sun is strong
spend all day and-a all night long
we'll drift away to the summer song
let me hear you sing
let me hear you sing that song
we're gonna drift away
we'll drift away to that summer song
hey
ooh
