Swings And Waterslides

Lyrics

Swings And Waterslides
Feeling a lighter breeze
The sun it shines on all you see
Squint trying to look at me
But can I use your lighter please?
You’re not with me tonight
And only you could make it right

[Chorus]
You know that we could be
You know that we could be
Eyes wide, bright light
Time flies, feels right
You know that it’ll be nice
You know that we could be
Night time, sky high
Act like we cry
But we’ve not, and all I wanna know is

[Post-Chorus]
Won’t you come home? (repeat)
Cause I need you home
Yeah I need you, oh, you know I do

It’s summer all the time
With you, you make me feel alright
All swings and waterslides
We’re summery and pretty high
Act like it’s a waste of time
Come in and then go out at night
With you

[Chorus]
You know that we could be
You know that we could be
Eyes wide, bright light
Time flies, feels right
You know that it’ll be nice
You know that we could be
Night time, sky high
Act like we cry
But we’ve not, and all I wanna know is

[Post-Chorus]
