Last American Summer

Palm sweat and butterflies

Popsicles melting in mid-July

Lost in your baby blue eyes

Oh, season of wonder

Cheap cologne, nervous laughs

How does anybody fall so fast?

How my heart broke

It pounded like thunder

The fireworks are burning in your eyes

Outshining all the stars up in the sky

What a thing to get myself into

Here I am, red, white and blue

Falling under

Last American summer

Late nights, no regrets

Long talks, Marlboro Reds

Can't get it out of my head

That our days are numbered

Loaded car, leaving slow

Where the hell does innocence go?

How my heart broke

And these days, I wonder

Are the fireworks still burning in your eyes?

Still outshining all the stars up in the sky

What a mess to get myself into

Here I am, red, white and blue

Falling under

Last American summer

Shoebox memories from the past

Of young love gone by so fast

I smile when I look back

At that last American summer

And the fireworks are burning in your eyes

Outshining all the stars up in the sky

What a thing to get myself into

Here I am, red, white and blue

Falling under

The last American summer

Oh, falling under

Last American summer
