about

When you can't get the to beach, hit the tar beach, the roof, and there love will happen, and you might say things you never thought possible to admit. Especially on a full moon.

lyrics

SUMMER ROOF

up on a summer roof
in the middle of the hood
the city lights spread out so pretty
+ man we felt so good
hey yeah

we drank til the stars got blurry
we laughed til the moon looked drunk
we stared at the distance between us
we wr cool we wr sexy we had fun

we spit off the edge on the sidewalk
we pissed on the trees out back
bare feet on the tar like soft black skin
yr eyes lt up like crack

so many answers are silly
+ love never waits for clues
we lost count of the times we was up there
just screaming away the blues

i will walk you home
we might get mugged
i would kiss you if yd let me
but the sun was comin' up

up on a summer roof
in the middle of the hood
the city lights spread out so pretty
+ man we felt so good
hey yeah
