Whispering on a cool summers day   I found my soul and took it back to her place   Skippin over lines on the pavement    Writin rhymes on the bus station   People plottin in the grass   kickin ball in the park   Drinkin brews after dark   Remember how we laughed    Laughed til we cried til the mornin came    With those girls oh right and oh what were there names      July, july, july, july, was a lovely year   It was a lovely year   We didnt have a lot of money   But you get me      Remember leavin town in a crazy ball of smoke   Drank a bit until our pockets were broke   Dreamin of beaches    Dreamin of women in skimpy bikinis   Traveled to a cost-del-sumfin   Made sure its in England so it costed us nothin   Wishein on a superstar we wished upon the sun and our wishe went oh so far   Drivin in the drivin seat    Playin James Brown at four in the mornin just so i dont sleep   And a week goes another week with me and my amigos, amigos   Using grass for the pillow makin sure we say hello   To all the future summer lovers    Last july got a lot of numbers    I'll see you next year when we do another runner       July july july july was a lovely year    It was a lovely year   We didnt have a lot of money    But you get me      And we sang      boo da boo di ba de   boo da boo di ba de   boo da boo di ba de da      repeat x3      I say , i say, I say    July,july july july was a lovely year    It was a lovely year    We didnt have a lot of money   But you get       July, july, july was a lovely year.
