Lyrics:

When I was 18
I didn't know pain when the sun was high
Burnt face, shadow's erased
And I knew I'd be alright
Left that behind me, uh huh
Something blinded me, uh huh
You're reminding me, uh huh
Of a better space and time, miles away

The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
The jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime

When I turned 21
I saw the sun falling out of sight
All that I met were dark silhouettes
Stumbling in the night
Then we collided, uh huh
And I finally, uh huh
Got a light on me, uh huh
Now I'm bathing in the bright ultraviolet rays

Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Time
Time

I left that behind me, uh, huh
And something blinded me, uh, huh
You're reminding me, uh, huh
Of a better space and time, miles away

Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
A jewel of the summertime

The jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
Jewel of the summertime
