Lyrics of Summertime Sadness by Lana Del Rey
chorus
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you the best
verse
I got my red dress on tonight
Dancin′ in the dark, in the pale moonlight
Done my hair up real big, beauty queen style
High heels off, I'm feelin′ alive
pre-chorus
Oh my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzlin' like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothin′ scares me anymore (one, two, three, four)
chorus
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you the best
I got that summertime, summertime sadness
Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
verse
I′m feelin' electric tonight
Cruisin′ down the coast, goin' ′bout 99
Got my bad baby by my heavenly side
I know if I go, I'll die happy tonight
pre-chorus
Oh my God, I feel it in the air
Telephone wires above are sizzlin′ like a snare
Honey, I'm on fire, I feel it everywhere
Nothin' scares me anymore (one, two, three, four)
chorus
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you the best
I got that summertime, summertime sadness
Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
bridge
Think I′ll miss you forever
Like the stars miss the sun in the morning sky
Later′s better than never
Even if you're gone, I′m gonna drive (drive), drive
chorus
I got that summertime, summertime sadness
Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime sadness
I just wanted you to know
That, baby, you the best
I got that summertime, summertime sadness
Su-su-summertime, summertime sadness
Got that summertime, summertime sadness
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
