The Boys of Summer

Ataris

1. 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 at home

R: 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

   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

R: 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

   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

R: 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

R: 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
