[intro] (Verse 1) Sunrise paints the sky in hues of gold, But inside I'm feeling icy cold, Memories of laughter, love that felt so true, Now every summer day reminds me of you. (Pre-Chorus) I walk the boardwalk, alone with the breeze, Every whispered secret brings me to my knees. (Chorus) Heartbroken Summertime, why'd you have to go? Leaving me with empty nights and a soul that’s moving slow, Oh, the days are burning, but my heart's frozen in time, In this Heartbroken Summertime, I'm lost without your light. (Verse 2) Neon lights flicker on deserted streets, Your shadow dances in every heartbeat, The carnival's laughter echoes in my mind, Yet, the thrill of summer fades when you're not mine. (Pre-Chorus) I trace our footsteps along the sandy shore, Every wave crashes memories I can't ignore. (Chorus) Heartbroken Summertime, why'd you have to go? Leaving me with empty nights and a soul that’s moving slow, Oh, the days are burning, but my heart's frozen in time, In this Heartbroken Summertime, I'm lost without your light. (Bridge) Maybe next summer, I'll find my way, A new melody to help me face the day, But until then, I’ll sing this refrain, Of love and loss, of joy and pain. (Breakdown) Oh, the ice in my veins melts slow with every tear, Yet the sun still shines above, a reminder you're not near. (Chorus) Heartbroken Summertime, why'd you have to go? Leaving me with empty nights and a soul that’s moving slow, Oh, the days are burning, but my heart's frozen in time, In this Heartbroken Summertime, I'm lost without your light. (Outro) Under the starry skies, I'll let the memories fade, Till a new dawn comes, I'll keep this bittersweet serenade. Heartbroken Summertime, your echo's all I know, A love that burned bright, now a shadow in the glow.
