Summer with You

Oh, I never cared much for being the new kid on the block

But we never stayed put in just one place

For all that long anyway

Oh, I never got used to all the different cities

And funny ways that people talk

And I don't remember them

But I remember when

In the backyard grass, laying up for hours

We were waitin' on a sign from a meteor shower

It was 3AM

That summer with you

Feelin' somethin' so new

It was almost frightening

But I put it in the back of my mind

'Cause it felt like lightning

With the beat of our hearts in tune

And our senses heightened

We were young and you were mine

That summer with you

Oh, I never much cared for the damp in the air

But I guess that's just the price you have to pay

On the fourth of July

Ooh, all the pitch black rollin' hills

We were ridin' dirt back roads

Chasin' firework shows

Oh, I don't remember them

But I remember when

I could feel your hand like it's frozen in time

'Cause when I looked down you were holdin' mine

And the world made sense

Oh, it just made sense

That summer with you

When we snuck you out a the house while your daddy was snorin'

And the summer rain came on fast in the heat, it was pourin'

And we ran all around till the sun came up in the morning

We were young and you were mine

That summer with you

How we danced to the beat of our drum

That summer with you

And we'd scream at the top of our lungs

That summer with you

Now you're still on the tip of my tongue

That summer with you

Feelin' somethin' so new

It was almost frightening

But I put it in the back of my mind

'Cause it felt like lightning

With the beat of our hearts in tune

And our senses heightened

We were young and you were mine

That summer with you

When we snuck you out a the house while your daddy was snorin'

And the summer rain came on fast in the heat, it was pourin'

And we ran all around till the sun came up in the morning

We were young and you were mine

That summer with you
