From: Super Trouper Album. Album was completed in November 1980,recordings at Polor Music Studios Stockholm Sweden, & Wembley Arena in London. It was ABBA'S 7th album.

The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right, the Paris night
Did it's best to please us
And strolling down the Elysee
We had a drink in each cafe
And you
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
Smiled like Mona Lisa
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
By the Eiffel tower
I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
Oh yes
Those crazy years, that was the time
Of the flower-power
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
We took the chance
Like we were dancing our last dance
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
[ Our Last Summer lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
Walking hand in hand
Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play
And now you're working in a bank
The family man, the football fan
And your name is Harry
How dull it seems
Yet you're the hero of my dreams
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away...

This song is so well-written and sung that it is actually "painful" to listen to; it pulls so many good memories and is such a "good-bye" melody that one yearns to go back to where and when it all happened...

Love this song. It reminds me of the trip our school friends (University of Madrid, Spain) took in the Easter of 1975. Paris's spring was cold and rainy, Belgium and Holland was still snowing, we threw snowballs on the street and rented two-seat bicycles sightseeing, Abba's songs were in the air.... Can you imagine, I am a Taiwanese American now living in Southern California :)

this song reminds me of a crush i had on a boy when i was 10 years old, because his name is Harry xD

I think all of us can remember such a summer and such a person who seemed larger then life...then coming upon the reality one day so much later. Oh, to live in dreams where everything is perfect and timeless...
