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

Im drivin by your house

Though I know youre not at 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 dont understand what happened to our love

But babe, Im gonna get you back

Im gonna show you what Im made of

I can see you

Your brown skin shinin in the sun

I see you walkin real slow and youre 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, "dont 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 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
