The Boys of Summer
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
But I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun
You've 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

[Verse 2]
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 babe, I'm gonna get you back
Gonna show you what I'm made of
[Chorus]
But 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

[Bridge]
Out on the road today, I saw a Green Day 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

[Chorus]
I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun
You've got that top pulled down and the radio on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

[Outro]
Yeah I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun
You've got your 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
