Lyrics
If I could bottle up the sea breeze
I would take it over to your house
And pour it loose through your garden
So the hinges on your windows would rust in colour
Like the boats pulled up on the sand for the summer
And your sweet clean clothes would go stiff on the line
And there'd be sand in your pockets
And nothing on your mind, oh
Every year it gets a little bit harder
To get back to that feeling of when we were fifteen
And we could jump in the river upstream
And let the current carry us to the beginning
Where the river met the sea again
And all our days were a sun-drenched haze
While the salt spray crusted on the window panes, oh
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
And we'll remember that summer as the ripe one
The storms made the pavement steam like a kettle
Now the first goodbyes always seem like hours
In the carpark in between my house and yours
And the summer holds a song we might sing forever
The winter holds a vibe we'd never felt before, oh
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
But time is like the ocean
You can only hold a little in your hands
So we swim before we're broken
Before our bones become black coral on the sand
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
We should be living like we lived that summer
I wanna live like we live in the summer
If I could bottle up the sea breeze
I would take it over to your house
And pour it loose through your garden
