Lyrics for Summer of 85

Wally Bartfay and Stephen Wrench

Verse I:

Do you remember the summer of 85?

A time when we felt most alive.

We would lie in the tall green grass.

Time went by like sand in an hourglass.

Kissing you under the cool moonlight.

Making love to you was pure delight.

You were my first love.

I wish I could turn back time,

And make you now permanently mine.

Verse II:

Do you remember the summer of 85?

A time when we felt most alive.

I wish I could hold time.

Being with you was so sublime.

Flowers were in their full bloom.

You’re smile always lit up the room.

I remember the smell of your perfume.

Looking at your old photograph,

You would always made me laugh. 

Chorus

Do you remember the summer of 85?

Oh, how I wish I could turn back time.

Sometimes now I lie awake at night.

Visions of loving you in my mind.

Going through our first love craze,

But I can’t pretend, I truly miss those summer days…

Verse III

Do you remember the summer of 85?

Oh, how I wish I could turn back time.

Just friends back then in those days,

We had to part and go our own ways.

Seeing your old photo, I miss you so bad,

And it’s slowly now driving me mad.

I wonder if you still remember me,

kissing you under the old cherry tree?

Getting down on my knees and

Pretending to ask you to marry me.

Repeat Chorus
