lyrics

Well it's hard to stay sad when it's summer outside
You keep finding yourself at the beach
With the sun beating down on those tears that you cried
and the tide's setting just out of reach

Smoke in your eyes and sand on your tongue
The afternoon's over before it's begun
But this day isn't ending the way that it should
'cause the sun ain't setting, but Lord I wish it would

Well you'll swim to the lighthouse, I'll swim to the shore
the ocean ain't always my friend
and it seems like my home's not my home anymore
But nothing this good really ends

Smoke in your eyes and wind in your hair
The hurricane's howling, but she ain't runnin' scared
She says, Honey the storm's where the memories get made
and the clouds ain't coming, but man I miss the shade

She was drinking red wine in a lavender field,
Mm mm mm
and the sky was on fire like a tangerine peel
MM mm mm

Smoke in your eyes and sand in your teeth
Missing her hands in that spot you can't reach
Now asleep you know better, but awake you're no good
and the sun ain't setting, but Lord I wish it would

Yeah the sun ain't setting but Lord I wish it would
Oh the sun ain't setting but Lord I wish it would, I wish it would, I wish it would
The sun ain't setting but Lord, I wish it would
