[Verse 1]
Well summertime is on its way out
A chill cuts through the air each evening
You look at me and don't say a thing
Lately we both must be getting that same feeling
Well tonight I see the lights going out
For one more time out on the promenade
Before they close it all on down for winter
We can pull on our best clothes and have a date
[Verse 2]
Well me and my friends used to do this as kids
When we only had each other and nowhere to go
Can't remember the last time we did it
And why we stopped I don't even know
But I can smell the sea and all the food they got
I'll buy you anything you wanna have tonight
From the teddies hanging high to the spinning toys
That cut through the black with their neon light
[Verse 3]
Well the fireworks they're all gonna blow at eight
And the rides are all half priced until then
You can pull me in close at the big high drop
Then I can do it to you when we go again
Faces that I've seen growing old around me
Seem to have found a way to grow young for a day
The waltzers go round for one more spin
You throw your head back and let it take you all the way
[Verse 4]
You know I haven't seen you laughing like this
No nothing like this for a long long time
And I haven't seen you smiling so big
Since the day I swore you'd always be mine
And moving past the chippers filling up to burst
As the band leader counts in one last song
An old favourite of yours that I remember the moves to
Feels like the whole crowd follows along
[Verse 5]
Sitting on the prom the sound of the sea comes from the black
The fireworks exploding at my ears in the night
You rest head down on my shoulder
See your face coloured by every shade of light
I lean my head back and watch the sky slowly breathe
The stars soundtracked by all the claps and the cheers
One last blast of light and then nothing but quiet
Then everybody leaving to the pub for some beers
[Verse 6]
Ah but you don't move and I don't either
You just lie beside me for a perfect minute
Then you sit back up and come in for a kiss
With everyday of saying we'll be alright in it
The ride lights are out and the party's moved on
The prom's blanketed in darkness and we're all alone
I put my jacket round your shoulders as the night starts getting colder
I take your hand and we walk on home
We walk on home
We walk on home
We walk on home
Yeah ohh
Woo
Woo
