I work my ass off every day and night.
|
and as I watched my life passing by
|
there's one thing that saves my youth, summer days summer nights in Beirut
|
I'm cheating death with every puff I take
|
just to forget that I'm only great
|
there's one thing that saves my youth summer days, summer nights in Beirut.
|
|
It was a clear summer day in '72
|
Beirut was the place to do
|
before the war it was best,
|
they all rushed down from the west
|
|
When violence was nowhere round
|
my old man was the coolest in town
|
I'm so glad that he's still around
|
when he sits me down to say
|
|
summer days, summer nights in Beirut [x4]
|
|
I work my ass off every day and night.
|
and as I watched my life passing by
|
there's one thing that saves my youth, summer days summer nights in Beirut
|
I'm cheating death with every puff I take
|
just to forget that I'm only great
|
there's one thing that saves my youth summer days, summer nights in Beirut.
|
|
Try to live and struggle our only hope
|
we were younger, played beside the house
|
and touched the coal
|
I know now everyone must fail, before they win
|
son remember how I used to hold u in the wind
|
and ever since than I work my ass off every day and night.
|
and as I watch my life passing by
|
there's one thing that saves my youth, summer days summer nights in Beirut
|
I'm cheating death with every puff I take
|
just to forget that I'm only great
|
there's one thing that saves my youth summer days, summer nights in Beirut
|
|
summer days, summer nights in Beirut [x4]
