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

Don't 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

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

And 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 'em go, but

I can see you,

Your brown skin shining in the sun

You got that top pulled down,

And that radio on, baby

And 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 that hair slicked back,

And those Wayfarers on, baby

And I can tell you my love

for you will still be strong

After the boys of summer have gone
