You roll and tumble
With your big heart falling
You roll and tumble aloneYou reach forever
With your dirty hands holding
You reach for something you will never knowI heard you singing
In a taco bell bathroom
I heard you singing a cheap trick songWe sang surrender
All the way to county lineWhen I listen to that song now
It makes me think of summertimeThat acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshineYou twist and turn
With your bright eyes shining
You twist and turn in the California sunYou wait forever
For the life that you dream of
You wait for something that will never comeYou twist and turn in a slow motion day dream
You twist and turn in your own sweet hellI don't get so close to the fire anymore
But when I think about you now
It makes me think of summertimeThat acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshineLaughing in the sunshine
In the sunshineYou twist and turn
With your bright eyes shining
You twist and turn in the California sunYou wait forever
For the life that you dream of
You wait for something that will never come
Never ever comeYou twist and turn in a slow motion free fall
You twist and turn in your own good timeI can't watch you twisting and turning and turning anymore
You know I never thought a good time
Would turn into a lifestyle
I just can't watch it anymoreBut when I think about that summertime
It always seems to make me smileYeah that acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshineGoWe were laughing in the sunshineGo
