Summer Love

Started when I saw your name
In the smallest place
And I didn't think much
Interacted a couple times
So we crossed the line
Where you have to say "what's up"
You and your dream like life
Going out all night
No love creates no fear
But time goes by and I see you smile
The smallest flame appears
Suddenly I listen for your name
In every room I'm searching for your face

As we drive away
In your beat up car
All across the state
I catch your eye and
Almost say "I think I'm in love"
Windows down
Singing our favorite song
Way too loud
Thought I heard you say
As I turned around
"I think I'm in love"

Summer came and we spent our days
Running all around the town
River floats and sunny days
I call out your name
Our friends say "keep it down"
My money becomes time
Wanna press rewind
Cause I know you're leaving soon
Each moment passes by
And I realize I have so much to lose
Suddenly I cherish every day
I'm putting memories inside a safe

As we drive away
In your beat up car
All across the state
I catch your eye and
Almost say "I think I'm in love"
Windows down
Singing our favorite song
Way too loud
Thought I heard you say
As I turned around
"I think I'm in love"

And the day came when you had to go
Like sun that beats on sheets of snow
Can't describe the feeling as you drove away
All the secrets whispered on the phone
And places that we used to go
But I know I'll see you on some summer day
From afar I see you through the trees
You park your car and run right back to me

And we'll drive away
In your beat up car
All across the state
I'll see those same eyes
And I will say "thank you for your love"
Windows down
Singing our favorite song
Way too loud
I'll wipe a tear and turn around
Never forget my love
