lyrics by Fountains of Wayne

It must be summer
Cause the days are long
And I dial your number
But youre gone, gone, gone
Id set out searching
But the car wont start
And it must be summer
Cause Im falling apart
I try your sisterOn the jersey shore
She said you might be stopping by
But shes not sure
So I call your mother
On long island sound
She said it must be summer
Cause youre never around
And the sun is beating me senseless
I feel defenseless like a dying lamb
I dont want to lie by the oceanside
Dont want to play in the sand
Cant you understand?
Cant you understand?
It must be summer
Cause the streets are bare
Andi try your number
But youre just not therer
And the sun keeps shining
Til its dead and gone
And it must be summer
Cause I cant go on
And the sun is beating me senseless
I feel defenseless like a dying lamb
I dont want to lie by the oceanside
Dont want to play in the sand
Cant you understand?
Cant you understand?
