Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
- Eighteen, we were undergrads
- Stayed out late, never made it to class, uh
- Outer Richmond in a taxi cab
- You were sweatin' bullets on the way to my Dad's
- And oh, you said, "Baby, think we're movin' too fast!"
[Pre-Chorus 1]
- And I swear the magnolias flashed a smile (Flashed a smile)
- And that's when I caught me hopin' you'd stay a while (Stay a while)
[Chorus]
- Baby, I'd give up anything to travel inside your mind
- Baby, I fall in love again come every summertime
- My daddy taught me to choose 'em wisely but you don't have to try
- 'Cause, baby, I fall in lovе every summertimе
[Verse 2]
- Twenty-five, man we're missin' church
- Laugh 'bout everyone we're hatin' at work
- Dinner with your sister and the jokes kinda hurt
- Cry the way home and you're puttin' me first, oh
- Yeah, you just always know what to say
[Pre-Chorus 2]
- We're strolling down the boulevard, and dancing under streetlights (Oh, the lights)
- Every year we get older and I'm still on your side (Oh, I)
[Chorus]
- Baby, I'd give up anything to travel inside your mind
- Baby, I fall in love again come every summertime
- My daddy taught me to choose 'em wisely but you don't have to try
- 'Cause, baby, I fall in love every summertime
[Outro]
- Every day is summertime
- Every day is summertime
- Every day is summertime with you
