Summer Day
Barbie Almalbis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Too happy to sit down in an airplane
We're riding along
Going away
Singin' a song for a summery day
Come out and feel the sun
Come out see the colors play
If you love the summer day
Goodbye to this boredom
Stuck in my room goodbye
Goodbye melancholy and the rainy day gloom
Riding along
We're going away
Singin' a song for a summery day
Come out and feel the sun
Shine down on everyone
Come out see the colors play
If you love the summer day
