The Summerhouse lyrics

Do you remember
The way it used to be
June to September
In a cottage by the sea
Distant cousins, local kids
We climbed every tree together
And it never ever rained
Till we climbed back on the train
That would take us so far away
From the village and the bay
And the summerhouse
Where we found new games to play

Do you remember
Sunday lunch on the lawn
Daring escapes at midnight
And costumeless bathes at dawn.
You were only nine years old
And I was barely ten
It's kind of weird to be back here again
Do you remember
The summerhouse...?

The Summerhouse Video

The Divine Comedy - The Summerhouse: From 1994 album "Promenade". In my humble opinion, one of Neil Hannon's best songs. I wonder if it's based on his own childhood memories? (video from YouTube)
