Years go by The singers change Same old story but The words get rearranged Somebody loved someone Somebody left someone Somebody swears it wasn't S'possed to end this way CHORUS People dance to summertime Happy songs with happy rhymes The melodies make you wanna drive And sing along Singers talk about growing up The first kiss And bein' in love But nothing hits as close to home As the breakup song Violins and "I love you's" If they slightly miss their mark They ring untrue But something 'bout goodbye Making someone cry Sounds to me more like What real people do CHORUS People dance to summertime Happy songs with happy rhymes The melodies make you wanna drive And sing along Singers talk about growing up The first kiss And bein' in love But nothing hits as close to home As the breakup song We need to talk This ain't working out Can we still be friends, I found someone else I need some space This just feels wrong Everybody's lived The breakup song
