Summer Is Over · Eneli

Kamikaze seagull planes
fighting over chip shop
take-away remains;
when you’re walking on the cliffs,
you can’t help thinking of
how far down the sea is,
and what if it should give…

I didn’t mean to bring you down,
summer’s over, seaside town;
she says we shouldn’t have come so far —
this seaside town, summer’s over.

Empty pubs echo with sounds
jukebox selections
that keep going round and round.
And maybe rain is all we need
to come and wash the summer rubbish off the beach…
oh, let’s just go to sleep!

I didn’t mean to bring you down,
summer’s over, seaside town,
she says we shouldn’t have come so far,
this seaside town…

I didn’t mean to bring you down,
summer’s over, seaside town;
she says we shouldn’t have come so far —
this seaside town, summer’s over.

In the back of the arcades,
kids borrow money
to play one more final game
while mothers wait in family cars.
I wonder why we ever chose to come so far,
but i wish you wouldn’t ask…

I didn’t mean to bring you down,
summer’s over, seaside town;
she says we shouldn’t have come so far,
this seaside town…

I didn’t mean to bring you down,
summer’s over, seaside town;
she says we shouldn’t have come so far —
this seaside town, summer’s over.

This summer’s over, seaside town.
This seaside town, summer’s over.
This seaside town…
Summer’s over…
Summer’s over…
Summer’s over…
