In the summertime
How we touched, how we kissed
Felt so right
Sun is gone, but the moon shines so bright
And I know we will share under the same star tonight
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Dance with me like no one else can see
Hold me like you don't want to be free
Sun is gone, but the moon shines so bright
And I know we will share under the same star tonight
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Cause' I just wanna dance with you
Won't you let me dance with you?
Just one more time, time, time
Just one more time, time, time
One more time, time, time
Sun is gone, but the moon shines so bright
And I know we will share under the same star tonight
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Oh, don't give up on love, don't give up on love, don't give up on love
Cause' I just wanna dance with you
Won't you let me dance with you?
Just one more time, time, time
Just one more time, time, time

I'm currently going through a pretty rough breakup, and this song is just so relatable. This is why I love music, it makes people feel, and gives people the ability to express emotions which otherwise would just be bottled up. Such a beautiful song!

@Dreamlink91
Once you realise that the only person who trusts you and who needs you 100% is only you to yourself, all of those breakups and problems wont matter a tiny bit. Life goes on, you are still here.. make the best of it.
