I don't mind all the guys dancing with my girl
That's fine, I know them all pretty well
And I know sometimes I must get out in the light
Better leave her behind where the kids are alright...
The kids are alright...
Sometimes, I know I gotta get away
Bells chime, I know I gotta get away
And I know if I don't, I'll go out of my mind
Better leave her behind where the kids are alright...
The kids are alright...
I know if I go things would be a lot better for her
I had this plan but her folks wouldn't let her
I don't mind, I feel i gotta get away
Bells chime, i know I gotta get away
And I know if I don't I'll go out of my fuckin' mind
Better leave her behind where the kids are alright...
The kids are alright... (3x)The boatrides we would take,
The moonlight on the lake,
The way we danced and hummed our fav’rite song;
The things we did last summer
I’ll remember all winter long.
The midwat and the fun,
The Kewpie dolls we won,
The bell I (you) rang to prove that I was
(you were) strong;
The things we did last summer
I’ll remember all winter long.
The early morning hike,
The rented tandem bike,
The lunches that we used to pack;
We never could explain
That sudden summer rain,
The look we got when we got back.
The leaves began to fade
Like promises we made;
How could a love that seemed so right go wrong?
The things we did last summer
I’ll remember all winter long.
