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
you got your hair combed back and
your 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
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 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
what did i know?
those days are gone forever
i should just let them go but
I can see you
your brown skin shinin' 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 shinin' in the sun
you got that 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
