Reef - Summer's In Bloom lyrics

Yeah, yeah when I was younger than now I am
I liked swimming, so I swam
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane
Tarmac broken from sun, up the grass came

Up willow I would climb to the top
Hang and watch the water drop
From my feet to the river below
Young strength finally waned, then I followed
I love that glow and now I know:
Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom, yeah
Light her up, let her fill the room
Speak no lie
Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom
Light her up, let her fill the room
The room, the room, the room
The room, the room, yeah

Off to Mugdley around the year's end
I shout up "Let's have a swim!"
I expect all my friends to say no
'They agree so in we go!

I got a stinging nettle rash for it
But, I'm so very happy that I did, yeah
I never ever ask why I don't care why
I just know that:

Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom, yeah
Light her up, let her fill the room
Speak no lie
Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom
Light her up, let her fill the room
The room, the room, the room
The room, the room, the room yeah

When I was younger than now I am
I liked swimming, so I swam
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane
Tarmac broken from the sun, up the grass
Came but trouble, when I got home, listen!

The winter evening that I come home
Found out that my girl had gone!
My father's eye told of a
Place that he'd been, yeah
Strong women play their own tune

Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom, yeah
Light her up, let her fill the room
Speak no lie
Summer's in bloom, summer's in bloom
Light her up, let her fill the room
The room, the room, the room
The room, the room, the ahh yeah
