<b>The Boys Of Summer</b> by <i>Jake Woodard</i><br />obody 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

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 and your sunglasses on, baby

And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong

After the boys of the 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

But I can see you

Your brown skin shining in the sun

I see you walking real slow and you're smiling at everyone

I can tell you my love for you will still be strong

After the boys of the summer have gone

Out on the road today, I saw a black flag 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 shining 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 the summer have gone
