"Summertime" lyrics - MICHELLE BRANCH
It's the time of year when things start growing wild
Love's found underneath the stars
The kids are playing in the backyard now
Catching fireflies in a jar
And I am sitting on my back porch
And I'm wondering where you are
And if you look at the moon like I do
Does it break your heart?
Does it break your heart
When you think about me?
Do you remember to forget
Summertime?
[Chorus:]
I go back there in my mind
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
When I was yours and baby, you were mine
Summertime
Oh, summertime
I thought I saw you a couple months ago
At the airport boarding a plane
I couldn't move, I didn't know what to do
And you took my breath away
I heard she's wearing a shiny diamond ring
I guess you're finally moving on
I hope you're happy when she's looking up at you
And I know it might be wrong
[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah, it might be wrong
When I think about you
I just can't forget
Summertime
[Chorus:]
I go back there in my mind
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
I was yours and baby, you were mine
Oh, summertime
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge:]
Summertime
I go back there in my mind
Ooh, how it gets me every time
[Chorus 3:]
All the flowers growing wild
Kissing underneath the moonlight
Discovering things we thought we'd never find
I was yours and baby, you were mine
Oh, summertime
Oh, oh, summertime
[Outro:]
And I am sitting on my back porch
And I'm wondering where you are
