[Intro: All]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Verse 1: Luke]
Life’s a tangled web
Of cell phone calls and hash tag I-don't-knows
And you, you're so caught up
In all the blinking lights and dial tones

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
I admit I'm a bit of a victim in the worldwide system too
But I've found my sweet escape when I'm alone with you
Tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps
Here in the moment on the dark side of the screen

[Chorus: All]
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favourite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we’re so disconnected

[Post-Chorus: All]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (we’re so disconnected)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Verse 2: Luke]
Hands around my waist
You're counting up the hills across the sheets
And I'm a falling star
A glimmer lighting up these cotton streets

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
I’ll admit I'm a bit of a fool for playing by the rules
But I've found my sweet escape when I'm alone with you
Tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps
Here in the moment on the dark side of the screen

[Chorus: All]
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favourite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we’re so disconnected

[Bridge: Calum]
Turn off the radio
Those late night TV shows
Hang up the telephone
And just be here with me
Turn off the radio
Those late night TV shows
Hang up the telephone
And just be here with me

[Chorus: All]
I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favourite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we’re so disconnected

I like the summer rain
I like the sounds you make
We put the world away
We get so disconnected
You are my getaway
You are my favourite place
We put the world away
Yeah, we’re so disconnected

[Outro: All]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (we’re so disconnected)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
