SUMMER
Cardo & Elia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This the type of song you put on every summer when you’re outside chillin
Put some goodies on that barbeque and wait until that stuff starts smokin'
Rest your head on a little pillow and disappear
It’s summer, meaning you can do whatever you want to do, dear
This time of year is perfect cuz you never really know what day it is
The time of year where you can everyday open a bottle with some fizz
Don’t forget to put the water hose in the grass
It’s a summer time routine now go and pour some more of that soda into your glass
'Cause there are things that taste better in the summer
Like strawberries and sugar or a kiss
Sure does feel like the summer is your friend
That returns, gives you a warm hug, then descends
Salty hair and lemonade, different kinds of melon on a glass plate
Pretty sunsets every night, don’t close your eyes cuz then you’ll miss it
Sweet warm summer nights, we’ll sit outside
This season really gets to me, now here are a couple reasons why
'Cause there are things that taste better in the summer
Like strawberries and sugar or a kiss




Sure does feel like the summer is your friend
That returns, gives you a warm hug, then descends
