The Boys of Summer - Don Henley
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 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?s 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 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 summer have gone
