lyrics

On a Friday last July we skipped along the shore
and kissed behind the dunes
By Sunday night you were already bored
distant as the moon
sand between your toes
white stuff on your nose
A melody that goes out of tune

I don't miss summer
I'm glad it's gone
Don't miss cryin'
all night long
Don't miss the sunshine
and skies of blue
I don't miss summer
and I don't miss you

Do you remember me, your little surfer boy
and the waves that dragged me down
Now in September you're trying to avoid
my gaze when I'm around
Like a seashell in your hand
or your fading tan
the feeling's lost and can't be found

I don't miss summer
I'm glad it's gone
Don't miss cryin'
all night long
Don't miss the sunshine
and skies of blue
I don't miss summer
and I don't miss you

When harbor lights glistened in your starry eyes
I shouldn't have listened to your stories and your lies

and now that
time has passed do you give a little laugh
when you call me an old friend
Do you still have a crumpled photograph
of that steamy lost weekend
and who's to say
next Memorial Day
I won't get carried away all over again

I don't miss summer
I'm glad it's gone
Don't miss cryin'
all night long
Don't miss the sunshine
and skies of blue
I don't miss summer
and I don't miss you
