Lyrics: 'til Summer Comes Around

Another long summer's come and gone,
I don't know why it always ends this way,
The boardwalk's quiet and the carnival rides,
are as empty as my broken heart tonight,

But I close my eyes and one more time,
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
The words came out, I kissed your mouth,
No 4th of July has ever burned so brightly,
You had to go, I understand,
But you promised you'd be back again,
And so I wonder round this town,
Til summer comes around.

I got a job workin' at the old park pier,
And every summer now for 5 long years,
I grease the gears, fix the lights, tighten bolts, straighten the tracks,
And I count the days til you just might come back,

But then I close my eyes and one more time,
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
The words came out, I kissed your mouth,
No 4th of July has ever burned so brightly,
You had to go, I understand,
But you swore that you'd be back again,
And so Im frozen in this town,
Til summer comes around.

Oh Then I close my eyes and you and I,
Stuck on the ferris wheel rockin' with the motion,
And hand in hand we cried and laughed,
Knowin' that the earth belonged to us, girl, if only for a moment,
Baby I'd be back again, you whispered in my ear,
But now the winter wind is the only sound,
And everything is closin' down,
Til summer comes around,
Til summer comes around...
