Words and music by Roddy Frame

Where the streets just sparkle silently
And leave the lovers to the night

Remembering how they came together
With such violence
Felt so good they did it twice
Too early for September songs
But much too late for love to bloom

Chorus:
V-A-L-I-U-M summer
Could you be mine shine through my summer
Could we be set free fly all summer
V-A-L-I-U-M summer

Misunderstood the moon and missed the sun
Too busy waiting on the word go
But now your lips will last a lifetime
And every second is a rainbow
Too early for September songs
But much too late for love to bloom

Chorus
