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 your 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?

Now I don't understand

what's 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 them go but-



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



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
