The Hooters

The Boys Of Summer

The Hooters


Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
Summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by hour 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 now
Sunglasses on baby
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

I can see you
Your brown skin 
Shining in the sun

I see ya walkin' real slow
Smiling 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 dead head 
Sticker on a cadilac
A little voice 
Inside my head said 
Don't look back 
You should never look back
I thought
I knew what love was
What did I know
Those days 
Are gone forever
I should just 
Let 'em go but

I can see you
Your brown skin 
Shining in the sun
You got the top 
Pulled down
Radio on baby
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 your hair 
Slicked back and it's
Wavy and long baby
I can tell you my love 
For you will still be strong
After the boys of summer 
Have gone
