about
The debut single from Red Negative, Sweet Summer Girl is a hard hitting punk-pop song, with a chorus that's sure to get stuck in your head.
lyrics
Your smile lit up the room,
As I stood frozen in my rip-off, converse shoes.
The sense of distaste,
Was written when smoke blew into your face.
We danced through the night,
They danced with the smoke out of sight.
The door opened wide,
Showing sin it tried hard to hide.
Sweet summer girl,
Can’t you see?
This isn’t your world,
And I’m trying to show you but you just don’t realise.
Sweet summer girl,
Stood there in your dress and your pearls.
Help me learn,
Why the need to let the world change you.
Shine bright the light won’t shine the same,
I said two can play that game.
You flirted that night,
Still don’t know if it was once or for life.
Sweet summer girl,
Can’t you see?
This isn’t your world,
And I’m trying to show you but you just don’t realise.
Sweet summer girl,
Stood there in your dress and your pearls.
Help me learn,
Why the need to let the world change you.
After tonight we know the truth won’t sound the same
After tonight we’ll find if two can play that game?
After the game, we’ll see if it’s only one night
After the game, we’ll see if it’s just now or now for life
Sweet summer girl,
Can’t you see?
This isn’t your world,
And I’m trying to show you but you just don’t realise.
Sweet summer girl,
Stood there in your dress and your pearls.
Help me learn,
Why the need to let the world change you
