Hot sun, dancin' on a river

We sit on the bank, watch the world go by

Our feet in the water, she pressed her lips to mine

We were so long on love, so short on time

She could be a honeymoon sweet and little wild

She was mine, oh for a little while



I laugh, everytime I start to think about us

We sent that summer out in style

She's gone, but she left me with a smile

Cause she was mine for a little while



We take a ride and head on down to airport road

Put the seats back and watch the planes leave town

Always said, nobody's strong enough to tie her down

Oh but I wasn't lookin' for that anyhow

I knew she would leave, but I didn't know when

It matters to me now, oh but it didn't back then and



I keep seeing pictures now of me and her and those summer nights

My mind fills with her, oh but it's alright cause



I laugh, everytime I start to think about us

We sent that summer out in style

She's gone, but she left me with a smile

Cause she was mine for a little while
