Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Like the Ferris wheel goes around and around
Well, the trouble with up is there's always a down
First, I'm holdin' your hand and we're on the boardwalk
There's Heaven right here on these streets and these docks
[Verse 2]
But the sun keeps settin', the days go fast
And the sand on the beach is like an hourglass
And I can just feel it all slippin' away
And babe, I can already say that
[Verse 3]
As long as I live, whatever I do
As great as it is, you know what's a bummer
I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you
Baby it's true, the taste of your kiss is so bittersweet
I ain't gonna beat, no way I'm gonna beat this summer with you
[Verse 4]
And before you know it, it's all gonna stop
They'll be rolling up windows and puttin' up tops
Be a cold wind blowin' the leaves through the air
And you won't find a tan line anywhere
[Verse 5]
And baby, I know that it ain't over yet
So let's make the most of what we have left
But it's hard livin' for this moment we're in and
Knowin' it's all gonna end
[Verse 6]
As long as I live, whatever I do (Whatever I do)
As great as it is, you know what's a bummer
I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you
Baby, it's true, the taste of your kiss is so bittersweet
I ain't gonna beat, no way I'm gonna beat this summer with you
[Verse 7]
Yeah, lookin' at you girl, standin' there
Got your wayfarers on and the sun in your hair
And just like the song in a seashell, you'll be stuck in my mind
Bouncin' around in my head and baby, I can tell
[Verse 8]
As long as I live, whatever I do (Whatever I do)
As great as it is, you know what's a bummer
I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you
Baby, it's true, the taste of your kiss is so bittersweet
I ain't gonna beat, no way I'm gonna beat this summer with you
