Real Summer Songtext
von Future Bible Heroes

I loathe on the porch swing, tall mint julep in hand
Listening to the Beach Boys, why don′t they understand?
This is not what I'd call summer
Summer, it′s infinitely less than

We get one real summer (One real summer)
Only one in our time (One real summer)
Full of wine and wonder, you were mine
We get one real summer (One real summer)
Ridiculous and sublime (And sublime)
Before we go under, you were mine

I may drive by Woody, down to sandcastle beach
With my brave new boyfriend, but love is out of reach
Who lives in these crumbling castles?
Summer's promise honored in the breach


We get one real summer (One real summer)
Only one in our time (One real summer)
Full of wine and wonder, you were mine
We get one real summer (One real summer)
Ridiculous and sublime (And sublime)
Before we go under, you were mine

So lost without you
Howling, a fool
What to do?
What to do?

Octagons fall from the sun as we run through the grass
Let weathermen blather, this forecast is o'ercast
And the Beach Boys, hell, they might as well play
Winter wonderland summer, my ass

We get one real summer (One real summer)
Only one in our time (One real summer)
Full of wine and wonder, you were mine
We get one real summer (One real summer)
Ridiculous and sublime (And sublime)
Before we go under, you were mine

You were mine
