The boys of summer

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
Summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by hour 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 now
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 ya walkin' 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 dead head
Sticker on a cadilac
A little voice
Inside my head said
Don't look back
You should 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 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 it's
Wavy and long baby
I can tell you my love
For you will still be strong
After the boys of summer
Have gone
