She sneaks in my bedroom window On summer nights when I can't sleep We stay up watching Casablanca And in the morning we hit the beach She tells my friends that she knows Jesus Said she saw him on TV Painting pictures of a starry sky It's hard to hate and still believe She don't talk a lot But what she says she's got Is a heart full of loving and baby that's all I need She blows kisses and Paints wishes in the sand She's got a heart full of loving and baby that's all I need She likes my Stevie Wonder records And my Transworld magazine Shoelaces tied, but different colors Says, "it's only cold in galaxies" She loves the evenings in California Watching the sun fall in the sea If beauty came in shapes and sizes I'd say she fits perfectly She don't talk a lot But what she says she's got Is a heart full of loving and baby that's all I need She blows kisses and Paints wishes in the sand She's got a heart full of loving and baby that's all I need She say she gotta lotta nothin' But you know nothin' can last So she gotta keep a-movin' And she gotta move it fast She gotta reach a little, teach a little Pass on all the love Dropping to her knees and now she get with the above She gotta belly-to-the-earth before she belly-to-the-sky Get the dirt off of her shoulder before she gonna fly It's a syncopated aspiration, she don't know why She gotta keep a-movin' and keep the truth alive Lyrics: Matt Daly

Another early morning lying on the beach The surf is low but never feels too out of reach The sun is shining down, the trees dance with the air As I think about the girl with the flower in her hair I remember that summer like it's yesterday I met you on the beach where we both said, "hey" A ciara whose tiara is a smile so wide You're the only girl who could turn my insides Outside, sideways, and upside down Gonna sing a new song about the love I found So put your hands together when the weather is fine We'll put our hands together, yeah yours in mine And we'll sing about the love that summer brings Another love for me to sing about The love that summer brings Just a summertime fling And we'll laugh at all the photographs Of summertimes now gone and past And all the love that we lost in between Just a summertime fling We used to drive around late on Friday nights Park down by the pier and watch the fading lights Singing songs and hanging out with all our friends Praying that the summertime would never end I remember that summer but I wonder does she? Ever spend her nights up thinking 'bout me? Wondering if this is how it's meant to be Or if things could've ended any differently And the sand remembers every name you write On the beach, laying out on a starry night And if I could take it back, I would make you mine If I could take it back to the summertime And we'll sing about the love that summer brings Another love for me to sing about The love that summer brings Just a summertime fling And we'll laugh at all the photographs Of summertimes now gone and past And all the love that we lost in between Just a summertime fling Lyrics: Matt Daly
