Miles/Ingle - For the Sake of the Night

Summer Was Mine

She had yellow hair
And a faded blue dress
In the summer of 1999

It was her sweet sixteen
I gave her my number
But she wouldn't give me the time
Oh oh

Now she sits behind her desk
Working for the IRS
Cashing other people's cheques
Her life's a total mess

I wonder if she wonders
If it wasn't a crime
What could have happened
Back when summer was mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

Summer

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

She was homecoming queen
The stuff of dreams
A dazzling little angel
Without her wings

I asked her to dance
She passed on that chance
For bigger and better things

Now she sits home alone
Cause her kids are all grown
Swiping on her phone
It's BBC and methadone

I wonder if she wonders
As she passes her time
What could have happened back when summer was mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

Summer

Back when summer was mine

Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Summer
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

She was my cherry machine
The queen of the scene
Make up melted
Just like icecream

Her accent has changed
And so has her name
But the fire deep inside her
Still burning deep blue flames

No time for regrets
Whiteclaw on her breath
Drinks it fast enough
Just so she can forget

Forget about tomorrow
Forget about the time
Forget to remember
That summer is mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine

Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Summer
Back when summer was mine
