[Intro]
Ten thousand summers
Ten thousand summers
Ten thousand summers
Ten thousand summers

[Verse 1]
Hand me that glass
Hold it to the light
There's a crack but it's still water tight
Pour me a drink 'cause it's getting hot
Since you went and put that dress on to pirouette in silhouette
And even when you're gone I still see it:

[Chorus]
Ten thousand summers cannot replace what we lost when you went away
Ten thousand summers in the grass
And though it's getting dark, remember this will pass

[Verse 2]
We take you car, but it won't run
So we wait for the train, but it never comes
Now we're underground in the heat listening to your songs
One headphone each
Sing into my mouth
Fill up my chest
The day will come you'll run out of breath

[Chorus]
Ten thousand summers cannot replace what we lost when you went away
Ten thousand summers in the sand
And though it's getting cold, remember this will pass

[Bridge]
And this sun will never set
And this sun, yeah, this sun
And this sun will never set

Ten thousand summers
Ten thousand summers

[Chorus]
Ten thousand summers cannot replace what we lost when you went away
Ten thousand summers in the dance
And though you're getting tired, remember this will pass

[Outro]
And this sun, yeah, this sun
And this sun will never set
