Off the Edge of the Summer

WE WHISPERED WISHES INTO WINE BOTTLES
AND WE THREW THEM INTO THE OCEAN
DID YOURS COME TRUE? I WISHED FOR YOU.

A BAND WAS PLAYIN IN THE DISTANCE
SOMEWHERE ACROSS THE WATER
WE DIDN'T KNOW THE SONG, SO WE HUMMED ALONG

DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
WATCHIN' IT FLOAT AWAY
DIDN'T KNOW IF WE'D EVER GET ANOTHER
SO WE COULDN'T JUST LET IT FADE
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS
BUT IT SURE FELT RIGHT
BACK WHEN WE THOUGHT LOVE
WAS A PARTY ALL NIGHT
WE WERE HOLDIN ON TO EACH OTHER
DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER

YOU SAID YOU'D WRITE ME A POST CARD
WHEN YOU GOT BACK TO YOUR MOTHERS
I MISS THAT VIEW, YOU WROTE IN BLUE

I KEEP IT IN MY CLOSET
IN A BOX UNDER SOME COVERS
I HATE THE TRUTH, I STILL MISS YOU

DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
WATCHIN' IT FLOAT AWAY
DIDN'T KNOW IF WE'D EVER GET ANOTHER
SO WE COULDN'T JUST LET IT FADE
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS
BUT IT SURE FELT RIGHT
BACK WHEN WE THOUGHT LOVE
WAS A PARTY ALL NIGHT
WE WERE HOLDIN ON TO EACH OTHER
DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER

WE WHISPERED WISHES INTO WINE BOTTLES
AND WE THREW THEM INTO THE OCEAN
DID YOURS COME TRUE? I STILL MISS YOU

DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
WATCHIN' IT FLOAT AWAY
DIDN'T KNOW IF WE'D EVER GET ANOTHER
BUT I WISH WE COULD TODAY
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS
BUT IT SURE FELT RIGHT
BACK WHEN WE THOUGHT LOVE
WAS A PARTY ALL NIGHT
WE WERE HOLDIN ON TO EACH OTHER
DANCIN OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
DANCIN' OFF THE EDGE OF THE SUMMER
OF THE SUMMER
