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 driving by your house

Though I know you're not home

But I can see you

Your brown skin shining in the sun

You got your hair combed back and sunglasses on, baby

And I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong

After the boys of summer have gone

I never will forget those nights

I wonder if it was a dream

Remember how you made me crazy

Remember how I made you scream

And I don't understand what happened to our love

But, baby, I'm gonna get you back

I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you

Your brown skin shining in the sun

I see you walking real slow and you're smiling 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

What did I know? Those days are gone forever

I should just let them go but, I can see you

Your brown skin shining in the sun

You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby

I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong

After the boys of summer have gone

I can see you

Your brown skin shining in the sun

You got your hair slicked back and your wayfarers on, baby

And I can tell you my, love for you will still be strong

After the boys of summer have gone
