The Boys Of Summer
Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake,
Empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm drivin' by your house
Though I know you're not at home
But I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
After the boys of summer have gone
I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
Remember how I made you scream
Remember how you made me crazy?
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
Out on the road today,
I saw a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice
Inside my head said,
"Don't look back. You can never look back."
I thought I knew what love was
Those days are gone forever
What did I know?
I should just let them go but-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I can see you-
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
I can see you-
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
After the boys of summer have gone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
