The only times I ever reminisce
Are those teenage years and my very first kiss
Summertime was that time for me
Sun bleached sand, heaven by sea
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 all night long
When we drift away to this summer song
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 nothin' goin' on but the love we're in
A memory of foreign friends
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 all night long
When we drift away to this summer song
I keep on wishin'
'Cause I know what I could be missin'
And I ain't leavin'
If I'll just keep on believin'
I could stay here in this one chance I could stay
But we've got [?] 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 all night long
When we drift away to this 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
