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 home
I can see you, your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got your hair combed back and those, 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?
But I don't understand what happened to our love
But baby when I get you back, I'm gonna show you what I'm made of
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
Out on the road today, I saw a black flag sticker on a Cadillac
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 'em go but
I can see you, your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that top pulled down and that, radio on baby
But 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
