Summer of Last Year

[Instrumental Intro]

[Chorus]
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year

[Verse 1]
I just passed through the place
Where the sea was warm and clear
And the sun was always hot
In the summer of last year
Now in this wind and rain
I started reminiscing
On all those fourteen days
That I have since been missin'

[Verse 2]
I remember all those girls
And the swimmin' suits they wore
The clean white summer clothes
They bought down some old store
I remember their bright eyes
And the color of their hair
As it waved and blew about
In the warm, soft summer air

[Chorus]
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year

[Verse 3]
With the free and easy times
On that long shore last year
Walking by the warm, blue sea
Or swimming by the pier
I just passed through the place
Where the sea was warm and clear
And the sun was always hot
In the summer of last year

[Bridge]
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year

[Chorus/Outro]
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
The summer of last year
