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 your

Sunglasses on baby

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

Now I don't understand

What happened to our love

But babe 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

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 the top pulled down

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 those

Wayfarers on, baby

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

After the boys of summer, have gone
