LolitA Strawberry in summer
もっと輝きを感じたい
今なら信じられるから
LolitA Strawberry in summer
きっとトキメキで赤い
小さな果実だって
Knight On Knight On
Hold Me My Babe 太陽が泣いてる
Kiss Me Kiss Me Do You Know Me
Days 生まれたことの意味を
2人でナイショで確かめた
矛盾の Ice 溶けだすみたいだった
いつからバレてもいいの
痛いことも乗り越えるよ
次に行けるなら
LolitA Strawberry in summer
そっとキミだけに言えた
誰にもさわれない夢
LolitA Strawberry in summer
ずっとつないだこの手に
勇気をもらってるよ
Dive その先が知りたいよ
飛びこむ瞬間瞳をとじた
レベルは High えはひとつじゃない
ダメでも良くても It's my Beat
つながってる気持ちをみて
嘘はいえないよ
LolitA Strawberry in summer
もっと輝きを感じたい
今なら信じられるから
LolitA Strawberry in summer
きっとトキメキで赤い
小さな果実だって
Knight On Knight On
Hold Me My Babe 太陽が泣いてる
Kiss Me Kiss Me Do You Know Me
約束するまぶしい風が
つめたく変わるけど
忘れない始まりの
この夏を覚えてく Woo Baby
LolitA Strawberry in summer
そっとキミだけに言えた
誰にもさわれない夢
LolitA Strawberry in summer
ずっとつないだこの手に
勇気をもらってるよ
LolitA Strawberry in summer
もっと輝きを感じたい
今なら信じられるから
LolitA Strawberry in summer
きっとトキメキで赤い
小さな果実だって
Knight On Knight On
Hold Me My Babe 太陽が泣いてる
Kiss Me Kiss Me Do You Know Me
Knight On Knight On




Hold Me My Babe 太陽が泣いてる
Kiss Me Kiss Me Do You Know Me

This is not Brian, not in a million years.

@Circuitdamage

Great song, i love it!!!!!!!!!

@da1maista

it is. i got a cd with exactly the same song on it. probably it never got published in the 70s but later....bought it like 10 years ago in the music store.

@GhostBehindYourEyes

Read "Are you ready Steve?" by STEVE PRIEST, he told that they never recorded Summer, and First Cut Is The Deepest. I've also have got some cds with those songs, bought in music shops. There is a lot of mess about their first recordings- for example music was recorded by other musicians, Sweet was only singing etc. But Summer in city is never recorded or singed by them. I think that Steve wasn't lying in his autobiography ;)

@GhostBehindYourEyes

Summer in city is never recorded by Sweet... Never...

@GhostBehindYourEyes

For me- somebody wants to make money. For example in Poland it's very hard to get original Sweet recordings. So many people are buying compilations, most of them are not original it's just piracy...

@da1maista

alright. i still wonder why this is on the cd, but if he said that in his autobiography, i will believe that. sorry then for my mistake

@Circuitdamage

One dislike, but the wizard is undeterred!

@anjaschmied2799

Never ever Brian Connolly !!!!!!!

@mikeanderson4459
