lyrics

Lazing round, up on Hungry Hill
You fed me strawberries, "I'll make you sweeter still"
Marquee bar lights, glowing hazy in the heat
Falling through July, drunk by the time you'd...

This world was ours
One Summer gone

We rode a sailboat and ran it aground
I'd've risked my life for you, when your friends were sat around
They took our photograph, young and pretty too
August for the taking and taken by us two

This world was ours
One Summer gone

Shade fell colder than laughter-turned-to-smiles
Balloon-ride just above, burnt all the words for miles
Old-September night, born in a fade-to-black
Said you'd see me around, never coming back.

Oh this world was ours,
One Summer gone.
