Lyrics
Happened on a summer night, memory is burning bright
as we lay under the stars, on the roof of my car
listening to a gentle breeze, that's what summer means to these bones
I gave her a wild rose, and we packed out things to go
driving into the night, pair of lights within our sights
with a swerve and with a bang everything came to a halt.
world coming down, crashing around
and I'll see you in the shadows
Happened on a summer night, memory is burning bright
not a moment is a haze, remember it like yesterday
listen to that gentle breeze and the shaking of these bones
I pick out a wild rose, gathering myself to go
driving to your final place, single tear falls from my face
as I make it to your grave everything came to a halt.
world coming down, crashing around
and I'll see you in the shadows.
every time the summer breaks I fall
I'm trying hard to break these walls
How could this ever happen? (3)
World coming down, crashing around
and I'll see you in the shadows
