{intro/bridge}
Want someone to care for me.
Want someone to care for me.
Wasting all this time to see
That hope is not reality for me.
{verse 1}
Lazy summer days he would kiss me,
Promise me the day would never come,
he wouldn't miss me.
But I am all alone now, and I'm wishin'
That day my heart said "fall in love",
I never would've listened.
{verse 2}
Waiting here seems like eternity.
As years go by-you wonder why;
And "What was in all this for me?"
But futures paved with what seem good intentions,
Honesty removes your doubts; life begins sweet intervention.
{chorus}
No-no. Children's eyes will always find redemption.
But for those of us-when we grow up;
Summer doesn't last a year for this heart anymore.
{vocal bridge}
All of my choices were the wrong ones.
His decisions were designed to ensure
that he had fun.
Now I'm lookin' back on all the yesterdays;
The days when I still had my own,
But I blindly gave that all away.
{chorus 2}
No-no children's eyes will always find caring ways.
But for those of us-when we grow up;
Summer doesn't last a year for this heart anymore.
{lead break}
{intro bridge repeat}
Want someone to care for me.
Want someone to care for me.
Wasting all this time to see
That hope is not reality-for me.
{verse 3}
Everyone around me's growin' up now.
Got their children and their roads are not so rough now.
Seems to me my rough road's never gonna end.
All the roads to hell and back to find true love
Were just pretend.
{chorus 3}
No-no. Children's hearts; the rules of love will always mend.
But for those of us-when we grow up;
Summer doesn't last a year for this heart anymore.
{fine}
No-no more.
It's over now.
No more-anymore,
No more.
It's over now for me.
I can see.
No more.
Any more.
Summer doesn't last a year no more.
