Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been waitin' on summertime Ever since I saw those fourth of July fireworks in her eyes And she asked me to dance right there in the Panama sand I think it's crazy how a stranger can give you the feelin' like you've known them forever And you don't want 'em leavin' And you try to pretend Maybe one day you'll see 'em again [Chorus] She's another long lost lover That stole my heart one week last summer When we closed our eyes and touched lips for the first time Before I left I went back to the sound of salt water Left words in the sand where I first saw her Sayin' one more goodbye Now I'm home and it's wintertime Just waitin' on sunshine Yeah, waitin' on sunshine [Verse 2] Well ain't it funny how a memory can last forever Can keep you warm in the coldest weather When you're down and out Yeah, reach in and pull you out And play you and old song With a simple rhyme that can take you back to a place and time Like when she found me Oh, now she's just a memory [Chorus] She's another long lost lover That stole my heart one week last summer When we closed our eyes and touched lips for the first time Before I left I went back to the sound of salt water Left words in the sand where I first saw her Sayin' one more goodbye Now I'm home and it's wintertime Just waitin' on sunshine [Bridge] I've had you on my mind, on my mind Been waitin' for a long, long time, a long time Now here we stand barefoot in the sand Takin' a chance, are you ready to dance? [Chorus] With another long lost lover That stole my heart one week last summer When we closed our eyes and touched lips for the first time Ain't it good to be back to the sound of salt water You're here in the sand where I first saw you Sayin' no more goodbyes We'll head home when it's wintertime And I'll be wakin' up to sunshine I'm wakin' up to sunshine Yeah, I'm holdin' onto sunshine
