we’re gonna save the summer
how many miles would I go for my love?
through the storm, through the storm
will I walk on the paths of her loneliness?
where I don’t belong and where I’ll never be
‘cause all my life I’ve never cared
I’ve been floating in the air
feeling I’m old and young at the same time
but now, you know, I’m not so sure
what’s gone wrong and what’s the cure
how can we chase away all of the dark clouds?

we’ve got to save the summer
will she walk on the paths of my emptiness?
where we don’t belong and where we’ll never be
take a taxi into town
past the girls and drunks and clowns
telephone me from a box if it’s raining
we’ll swim our way into the crowd
talking low and thinking loud
we’re gonna chase away all of the dark clouds

we’re gonna save the summer
we’ll save the summer
maybe we can do it if we want it enough
‘cause if you want it
it will wait for you
if you want it
it will wait for you
if you get there soon
