Until the Summer Songtext
von Sunny Intervals

Springtime falls on the Serpentine
The running club trains for its summer races
Boys practice rowing to impress the girls in June
Tourists huddle for warmth on the lower decks
Ticking off sights on the circular bus tours
Watching the mist rise from under a guidebook umbrella
(Until the summer comes)

I′ll close my eyes
Rest my head on the table and count the hours
(Until the summer comes back)
May, June, July, August, September is all that counts
(Until the summer comes back to me)

The conductor arrives then the symphony starts
The percussionists cling to their timpani mallets
Waiting to strike as the overture hits its stride
And then the summer flashes like ribbon lightning
The camera phone blur of an Olympic sprinter
The theme park ride a fraction the length of the queue
(Until the summer comes)


I'll close my eyes
Rest my head on the table and count the hours
(Until the summer comes back)
May, June, July, August, September is all that counts
(Until the summer comes back to me)

Just holding back until the summer
Just holding back until the summer
Until the summer

I′ll close my eyes
Rest my head on the table and count the hours
May, June, July, August, September is all that counts

I'll close my eyes
Rest my head on the table and count the hours
(Until the summer comes back)
May, June, July, August, September is all that counts
(Until the summer comes back to me)

(Until the summer comes back to me)
(Until the summer comes back to me)
I'll be a runner circling the Serpentine
(Until the summer comes back to me)
I′ll be a tourist circling the city sights
(Until the summer comes back to me)
Until the summer comes back to me
