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 back yard, grass, laying up for hours
We were waiting on a sign from a meteor shower
It was 3 AM

That summer with you
Feeling something so new
It was almost frightening
But I put in the back of my mind
'Cause it felt like lightening
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 4th of July
Ooh, all the pitch black rolling hills
We were riding dirt back roads
Chasing fire work 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 holding mine
And the world made sense
Oh, it just made sense

That summer with you
When we snuck you outta the house
While your daddy was snoring
And the summer rain came on fast
And the heat, it was pouring
And we ran all around 'til 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
Feeling something so new
It was almost frightening
But I put in the back of my mind
'Cause it felt like lightening
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 outta the house
While your daddy was snoring
And the summer rain came on fast
And the heat, it was pouring
And we ran all around 'til the sun came up in the morning
We were young and you were mine
That summer with you
