[Verse 1]
Losing all my friends
Losing them to drinking and to driving
Losing all my friends
I want them back
Slipping out the back
Did you really think they wouldn't notice?
Slipping out the back
In the pouring rain

Yeah
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Leo loved his wife
Loved her and was faithful to her always
Buried both the kids
In the summer sun
Praying for his life
Huddled in the brig hold with his shipmates
Praying for his life
And we dropped the bomb

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
What you waiting for?
Searching for your brother in an empty
Room across the hall
Is he coming back?
Listening at night
Waiting for a sound to come up the stairs
Listening at night
In the silence of the car park

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Call him up this summer on the phone
Let him know what it feels like again
Summer skin
Found another lover, tell him straight
One time at night I'll come 'round again
I'm coming 'round the end, yeah
I'm coming 'round the end

[Verse 4]
Tying both your shoes up
Looking past the ocean for a signal
Waiting for a bottle
In the open water
They don't send you letters
They don't telephone you in your innocent cell
They don't send you letters
But you're waiting for them
You're writing
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
Call him up this summer on the phone
Let him know you feel love again
I'm coming 'round the end
Call him up this summer on the phone
Let him know what it feels like again
In summer skin, yeah
