[Intro]
[Verse]
We can remembe
r swimming in
December,
Heading for th
e city lights,
in 1975
We share in ea
ch other
Nearer than fa
ther
The scent of a
lemon, drips
from your eyes
We are the peo
ple that rule
the world
A force runnin
g in every boy
and girl
All rejoicing
in the world
Take me now
We can try
We lived an ad
venture
Love in the Su
mmer
Followed the s
un till night
Reminiscing ot
her times of l
ife
For each every other
The feeling wa
s stronger
The shock hit
eleven
Got lost in yo
ur eyes
[Chorus]
I can’t do wel
l when I think
you’re gonna
leave me, but
I know I try
Are you gonna
leave me now
Can’t you be b
/
elieving now
(repeat)
[Verse]
Can you rememb
er and humaniz
e,
It was still w
here we’d ener
gized,
Lie in the san
d and visualiz
e like its 75
again
We are the peo
ple that rule
the world
A force runnin
g in every boy
and girl
All rejoicing
in the world
Take me now
We can try
[Chorus]
I can’t do wel
l when I think
you’re gonna
leave me, but
I know I try
Are you gonna
leave me now
Can’t you be b
/
elieving now
(repeat)
[Bridge]
I know everyth
ing about you
You know every
thing about me
Know everythin
g about us
(repeat)
[Chorus]
I can’t do wel
l when I think
you’re gonna
leave me, but
I know I try
Are you gonna
leave me now
Can’t you be b
elieving now
