Summer moved on
And the way it goes
You can't tag along

Honey moved out
And the way it went
Leaves no doubt

Moments will pass
In the morning light
I found out

Seasons can't last
And there's one thing
Left to ask

Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
With nobody else around

Friendships move on
Until the day
You can't get along

Handshakes unfold
And the way it goes
No one knows

Moments will pass
In the morning light
I found out

Seasons can't last
So there's just one thing
Left to ask

Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

Seasons can't last
And there's just one thing
Left to ask

Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

Summer moved on

    General Comment:Maybe it's about moving on, while others stay where they are. Stay or go, Summer keeps movin' on, with nobody else around.

    My Interpretation:I think it's about people coming and leaving our life. After all good times are through, they leave, although we want them to stay with us...

    General Comment:Summer is an indication of good times that are over so soon.

    When Paul wrote it he said that he had found the perfect composition. I bet he was right, but not to ignore Hunting High and Low.

    A-Ha are the most underrated band in the world, and this song is the best of the decade. Period.

    General Comment:Wow!That was really long and high!

    I've read over wiki's page that

    Morten Harket holds the European record for the longest note held in a Top 40 pop song. During the song "Summer Moved On" Harket sustains a note for 20.2 seconds (=32 measures).

    so, I waited for it and count until when he would stop.


    STAY.............................

    General Comment:I think it's about being caught up in the bad htings in life. The care-free days of the summer (or being young) are over and now it's time to get back to buisness and reality.
