Don Henley - Boys Of The Summer Lyrics

Miscellaneous
Boys Of The Summer
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
