Summer of 2009

It's something I could not explain to you because 
it's something I cannot obtain no matter how  
hard I try to quantify it
drive myself insane
And each time I try to find myself 
I end up back again 
 
I can feel the sunshine 
what a time to be alive 
in the summer of 2009 
we had it all for the last time  
 
Remember staying up all night 
communion by the firelight 
nothing to do, out past curfew  
Running from the cops 
and each time we thought they pinned us down 
we'd come out on top 
 
I can feel the sunshine 
what a time to be alive 
in the summer of 2009 
we had it all for one last 
summer
 
2009
the lazy days would end 
with sunsets on the beach 
2009
I almost feel it now 
but it's just out of reach 
2009
the crimson red, the death knell 
fated summer's end 
2009
all summers end 
 
I can feel the sunshine 
what a time to be alive 
in the summer of 2009 
we had it all for one last summer
we had it all for one last summer
the summer of 2009
