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
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

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 deadhead 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 shining 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
