I buried our love, in the backyard Until it thaws, we could play cards 'Cause I know that it's hard When it's dark and cold And all that you feel Is yourself getting old But summer will come With all green and sweetened ice tea Summer will come and be all green with the sweetness of these So feed me a kiss, chapped lips and all And I'll bring back the tape, of an empire's fall Summer will come With all green and sweetened ice tea Summer will come and be all green with the sweetness of these And I'll tie a string, around my finger So I don't forget Not to get so tied up to The things that I regret 'Cause summer will come With all green and sweetened ice tea Summer will come and be all green with the sweetness of these
