Rolled in as wild and free
As a Clearwater Beach at 17 memory
Eyes blue as the July sky sent shivers down my spine
Every time that he'd smile at me
The way he took off that white t shirt
The way he looked walking outta that water
And it just got hotter and hotter

The tan lines fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boombox our bare-feet in the sand
Making out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hands, yeah

He drove away the first of September
But I'll remember, yeah, I'll remember
He talked like, and he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer
And he burned like summer, summer

His kiss was a sweet salt breeze had a hold on me
Like the moon pulls the tide
Took me up on the Ferris wheel and I swear
It feels like I never came down from the high
I know we never said forever
But something bout it felt like it would never end

The tan lines fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boombox our bare-feet in the sand
Making out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hand,s yeah

He drove away the first of September
But I'll remember, yeah, I'll remember
He talked like and he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer
Oh, bottle rocket sparks in the Florida sky
Summer, summer
Something that bright's gotta burn out some time

The tan lines fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boombox our bare-feet in the sand
Making out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hands, yeah

He drove away the first of September
But I'll remember, yeah, I'll remember
He talked like and he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer, yeah
He burned like summer, summer
Oh, and he burned like summer
