[Intro]
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

[Chorus]
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?

[Verse 2]
Sure we can make it till the evenings
Cool haze is reflected off your thighs
Long days are coming up and staying up and playing
Music of the falling stars, a melody (melody...)

[Chorus]
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?

Summer, summer
Summer, summer

[Verse 3]
Wild orchid in the wind you know just where it's blowing
So fresh
From your lips is born a melody (melody, melody)

[Outro]
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
Doo doo doo doobeedoo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doobeedoo (taste the summer)
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Doo doo doo doobeedoo (taste the summer)
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Doo doo doo doobeedoo (taste the summer)
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer? (Taste the summer)
Doo doo doo doobeedoo (taste the summer)
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Can you taste the summer?
Taste the summer

Duran Duran

DURAN DURAN has a total of over 80 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 30 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. They’ve managed to fuse pop music, art, technology and fashion with a unique sense of style and confidence. Princess Diana also admitted that Duran Duran was her favourite Band among others.

Bassist John Taylor has said the original vision for the band’s sound was ‘to fuse the Sex Pistols and Chic’ after hearing those two bands back-to-back on a pub jukebox one night.
