rate me

The boys of summer<br>Nobody on the road<br>Nobody on the beach<br>I feel it in the air<br>The summer's out of reach<br>Empty lake,<br>Empty streets<br>The sun goes down alone<br>I'm drivin' by your house<br>Though I know you're not home<br>But I can see you-<br>Your brown skin shinin' in the sun<br>You got your hair combed back and your<br>Sunglasses on, baby<br>And I can tell you my love for you<br>Will still be strong after the boys of<br>Summer have gone<br>I never will forget those nights<br>I wonder if it was a dream<br>Remember how you made me crazy? <br>Remember how I made you scream? <br>Now I don't understand what's happened<br>To our love,<br>But babe, I'm gonna get you back<br>I'm gonna show you what I'm made of<br>I can see you-<br>Your brown skin shinin' in the sun<br>I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone<br><br>I can tell you my love for you will still be strong<br>After the boys of summer have gone<br>Out on the road today I saw a deadhead sticker<br>On a cadillac<br>A little voice inside my head said, don't<br>Look back. you can never look back.<br>I thought I knew what love was,<br>What did I know? <br>Those days are gone forever<br>I should just let them go but-<br>I can see you-<br>Your brown skin shinin' in the sun<br>You got that top pulled down and that radio on baby<br>And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong<br>After the boys of summer have gone<br>I can see you-<br>Your brown skin shining in the sun<br>You got that hair slicked back and<br>Those wayfarers on, baby<br>I can tell you my love for you will still be strong<br>After the boys of summer have gone
