“One Last Summer”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Underneath the [G] twilight sky,
[Am] We found love that [Em] never dies.
[F] Lost in the [C] rhythm of your [G] eyes,
[Am] One Last Summer [G] under moonlit skies.
(Chorus)
[F] One Last Summer, [C] under the stars,
[G] Dancing in rhythm with our [Am] beating hearts.
[F] One Last Summer, [C] let’s make it ours,
[G] Under the moonlight, [Am] let’s make a new start.
(Verse 2)
[C] Dancing barefoot [G] on the sand,
[Am] Holding onto [Em] your warm hand.
[F] The cool breeze [C] and the [G] band,
[Am] One Last Summer [G], in a far-off land.
(Chorus)
[F] One Last Summer, [C] under the stars,
[G] Dancing in rhythm with our [Am] beating hearts.
[F] One Last Summer, [C] let’s make it ours,
[G] Under the moonlight, [Am] let’s make a new start.
