Girl of the Summer

The boardwalk's empty, gray stole the blue from the sky
And ain't nobody watchin' the sun burnin' into the night
Nobody is hangin' 'round makin' out in the photo booth
Guess this old beach town burned out for me and you
I can see the smoke rolling off your lips
Feel my fingers runnin' through the belt loops on your hips
I guess you had to go, had other things in mind
Never thought you'd leave me behind

I see I was just another
Sunset fadin' in your eyes
I may never love another
But I had my girl of the summer

I can see your feet on my dash
Dark hair in the breeze
Hunger in the golden brown eyes staring holes through me
Grindin' through the gravel past the trains to that old junkyard
The things we uncover on top of those abandoned cars
I can feel the steel stickin' to my back
Feel the wind howlin' through the trains on the tracks

Countin' every star, crossin' every line
Always thinkin' that you'll be mine

I see I was just another
Sunset fadin' in your eyes
I may never love another
But I had my girl of the summer

Just last week saw a black jeep passing me by
Could have sworn it was your dark hair
Blowing out the passenger side
I did a double take, couldn't catch my breath
Felt just like a wrecking ball that hit me in the chest
It's like you disappeared, swept out in the tide
How'd you leave without a goodbye

I see I was just another
Sunset fadin' in your eyes
I may never love another
Like my girl of the summer
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
