Taste the Summer Lyrics

Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
(Taste the summer, you can taste the summer)

Can you, can you taste the summer?
I do, I find it in your mouth

Now if I have a weakness it's for sweetness
And it's... floating on your breath, the sweetest melody

Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
(Taste the summer, you can taste the summer)

Sure we can make it till the evenings
Cool haze is reflected off your thighs

Long days are coming up they're staying out and playing
Music of the falling stars, a melody (melody...)

Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
(Taste the summer, you can taste the summer)

Wild Orchid in the wind you know just where it's blowing
So fresh from your lips is born the melody
Melody
Melody
Melody

Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

(Chorus)

Can you taste the summer (the summer, the summer...)

And it's... floating on your breath, the sweetest melody

Doo doo doo doobeedoo

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Great imagery. I like how it fades away in the end.

I read the line "sweetest melody" in a Shakespeare play (I think it was Henry IV) and it made me think of this.

Now that I think about it, I think this might be about having a relationship with a younger woman. Still sweet, innocent, fresh, etc. He tastes that she is in the summer of her life. Hot song!
