Penny sweets, bubble gum kisses in the corner oh for simpler times
Dreaming the day away into an 8 track recorder wishing you were mine
And there’d be people in the streets singing love’s not just a four letter word
And my eyes wouldn’t be locked to a screen
And my joy wouldn’t come from a meme
And you’d be wearing your cute red dress with white flowers all around your hair
And I swear I could have kissed you there and then
And maybe I just might
I can’t wait for the summer
Do do you, do you wanna go?
Do do you, do you wanna go?
I can’t wait for the summer
Do do you, do you wanna go?
Do do you, do you wanna go?
I can’t wait for the summer
Candy cane riding the big top at the fairground on our wedding day
Watching our best friends ride the bumper cars with strangers
Who don’t know even know that this day is ours
And you’d tell me I was sweet when I sang love’s not just a four letter word
And my eyes well they’d be firmly on you waiting to say “yes I do”
And you’d be wearing your long black dress coz you’ve always been rebellious
And I swear I could have kissed you there
And maybe I just might
I can’t wait for the summer
Do do you, do you wanna go?
Do do you, do you wanna go?
I can’t wait for the summer
Do do you, do you wanna go?
Do do you, do you wanna go?
I can’t wait for the summer
Will you be my valentine?
Come around drink rosé wine
And you can put on Taylor Swift
And maybe even catch a kiss
And I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
I can’t wait for summer
Ooooh
I can’t wait for summer
