Intro
Snap-clap, sun hits All, all summer Yeah
Verse 1
Eight-seventeen, light through the blinds White tee clean and the denim fits right Sunscreen streak on the side of my wrist Blue tote swinging with a folded receipt Front door open, warm air in I catch my reflection and I almost grin
Pre-chorus
No big speech, no perfect plan Just bare arms out and keys in hand One step down, whole street turns on I put the summer on
Chorus
I got all summer on Light on my shoulders, heat on the concrete All summer on Open-window song coming down the backstreet We do not need much Just a little blue sky and somebody to call I got all summer on All, all summer on
Verse 2
Corner-store ice in a paper cup Two friends late but they pulling up Phone face cracked but the picture looks clean Palm shade moving on the passenger seat Somebody laughs from a second-floor rail Whole block bright like a postcard mail
Verse 3
From the 305 up to 954 Same sun waiting by a different door Rain dries fast on the hood of the car New shirt soft, old sidewalk warm Nothing loud, just a look that lands Like the day got better when we walked in
Pre-chorus
No big speech, no perfect plan Just bare arms out and keys in hand One step down, whole street turns on I put the summer on
Chorus
I got all summer on Light on my shoulders, heat on the concrete All summer on Open-window song coming down the backstreet We do not need much Just a little blue sky and somebody to call I got all summer on All, all summer on
Verse 4
Crosswalk flash and the bass rolls by Gold on the glass of a storefront sign Linen moves when the ocean air hits Whole crew fresh but nobody forced it Camera comes out, then it goes away Some days feel better when you let them stay
Bridge
I put the summer on and let the day catch up Blue tote, white sun, iced drink half crushed If the light feels good, we can take the long way If the song comes on, let it run the whole day
Verse 5
Seven-oh-three and the sky turns peach Sand in the cuff of my rolled-up jeans Same little chorus from a car nearby Same good feeling, different streetlight I do not need a reason, I just know This is the part where the whole day glows
Pre-chorus
No big speech, no perfect plan Just bare arms out and keys in hand One step down, whole street turns on I put the summer on
Chorus
I got all summer on Light on my shoulders, heat on the concrete All summer on Open-window song coming down the backstreet We do not need much Just a little blue sky and somebody to call I got all summer on All, all summer on
Outro
