The Summer

The summer's only six weeks long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only stretch out days
in weeks, in months, in years.

If I could be just what you want,
then I would travel to the sun.
If I could be just what you want.

I haven't made my bed for weeks
And I'm not gonna get up.
These thoughts of you, they live in dreams,
and I'm not gonna get up.
I'm not gonna get up.

A wedding's only one day long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only grow legs in a night,
And treat you once in your life.

Growing old is round the bend,
But I wish it was further, I wish it was further.
Cause we can only stretch out days
in weeks, in months, in years.

If I could be just what you want,
then I would travel to the sun.
If I could be just what you want.

I haven't made my bed for weeks
And I'm not gonna get up.
These thoughts of you, they live in dreams,
and I'm not gonna get up.

I'm not gonna get up.

So I'll sing you, like a bird to a song.
If only we knew, if only we grew,
I would fall back head-over heels out of love with you.
