Verse 1: (no guitar, but the banjo continues to play a similar pattern as in the
intro. I wrote the chords in anyways.)
I vowed this wouldn't be, another lost summer.
I've looked around, but I can't see, that old time summer.
It's still hot, but I look at what I've got... and all I feel is number.
Guitar Fill (uses to come in after verse 1, and periodically throughout the rest of the song.)

Verse 2:
I guess it's too late, to plant those seeds, another lost summer.
It's not worth it to pull the weeds, are you ready drummer?
They'll just die, like I'm doing inside.
Verse 3:
My brother and I were the best of friends, that old time summer.
More than just brothers but now I pretend, another lost summer.
Is it a crutch, that I expect so much?
Verse 4:
I promised myself I'd be strong this year, oohhhh ooohhh.
But here I am again filed with summer tears, oohhhh ooohhh.
And the fish ain't biting, and I'm through fighting the same situation, the same frustration,
'Cause summer's almost gone, the love I planned to sing about never came along.
And I can't figure out where I belong, but every year I sing the same old song,
Where's that old time summer? Where's that old time summer?
It's another lost summer. Another lost summer.
