I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day
And I want to drive forever

I want the sand out there to lie on
And the sea out there to swim
So my heart can take a holiday
From breakin' over him
Summertime when will you come
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

Brought out for all to see
The damage done
Face contra
