Summer's Over - Barry

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

Summer’s over…
