The Boys of Summer Lyrics

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

Chorus:
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 happened to our love
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

Chorus:
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 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...

Chorus:
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 shinin' 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
