Lyrics
Nobody on the road,
nobody on the beach.
I feel it in the air,
the summers out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets,
the sun goes down alone.
I'm driving by your house
though i know that you not home...
And i can see you
you brown skin shining in the sun
you got your hair combed back
sunglasses on baby
and i can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the boy of summer have gone.
out on the road today
i saw a dead head sticker on a cadillac
a 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 for ever
i should just let them go and...
i can see you
your brown skin shining in the sun
you know your walking real slow
smiling at everyone
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 drove me crazy?
remember how i made you scream?
now i don't understand what happed to our love
now baby gonna get you back
gonna show you what i'm made of...
i can see you
your brown skin shining in the sun
you got your top pulled down,
radio on baby
and i can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the boys of summer have gone.
