When the smell of the lawn makes you flop down on it
        F                    Bb

And that little girl that called you a flirt

Memory comes taunting
   F                               Bb
You pick these things apart they're not that appealing
   Am                                    C
You put them together and you'll get this certain feeling

And that summer feeling is gonna haunt you

When the smell of the lawn makes you flop down on it
When the teenage car gets the cop down on it
That time is here for one more year
that summer feeling's gonna haunt you
The rest of your life.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

If you've forgotten what I'm naming
You're gonna long to reclaim it one day
you see that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
the rest of your life.
(That summer feeling That summer feeling)
but if you wait until your older
A sad resentment will smoulder one day
And Then the summer feeling will come haunt you
And that summer feeling will come taunt you
that summer feeling will hurt you
later in your life.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

when the playground that just was all dirt
comes hauntin
and someone who called you a flirt
comes tauntin
it's not that these things alone
were appealin
what I now revealin is a certain feelin
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you
the rest of your life.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

What time? Well, just me!
When the Oldsmobile has got the top down on it
When the catamaran has got the drop down on it
When the flat of the land has got the crop down on it
what I now proclaim is sortta hard to name
But that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
the rest of your life.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

When even fourth grade starts looking good
Which you hated,
And first grade's looking good too,
Overrated,
And you boys long for some little girl
That you dated
Do you long for her of for the way you were,
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you
the rest of your life.

That summer feeling That summer feeling
That feeling's gonna haunt you
That summer feeling That summer feeling
That feeling's gonna taunt you
That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling That summer feeling
That summer feeling

The Other End version - Lyrics

well When there's things to do and not because you gotta
When you run for love not because you oughtta
When you trust your friends with no reason nada
That joy I just named will not be tamed
because that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
for the rest of your life

feeling
that summer Feeling
feeling
that summer feeling

well When the cool of the pond makes you drop down on it
When the smell of the lawn makes you flop down on it
When the teenage car brings the cop down on it
That time is here for one more year
you see that summer feeling's gonna haunt you
the rest of your life

feeling
that summer Feeling
that summer feeling
that summer feeling

and If you've forgotten how to name it
well You're gonna long to reclaim it one day
you see that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
the rest of your life

summer feeling
that summer Feeling

And if you wait until your older (what will happen?)
A sad resentment will smoulder some day
you see that summer feeling you have is gonna haunt you
I'm sayin that summer feeling you've had is gonna taunt you
well that summer feeling is gonna want you
the rest of your life

well When the Oldsmobile has got the top down on it
When the catamaran has got the drop down on it
When the flat of the land has got the crop down on it
the joy I've named will not be tamed
and that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
for the rest of your life

feeling

Well when your friends are around and they've got time for ya
when they're all in town and they don't ignore ya

When you say what you want and they still adore ya
Is that not appealing, it's that summer feeling.
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you
I said that summer feeling is gonna taunt ya
but if you don't get it right
for the rest of your life

(I've already got a pick in there, I don't need this one)
