Bare feet on the dashboard, sun kissing our skin

Waves crashing softly, hearts giving in

You looked at me like I was everything

Back when the world was warm and shimmering

Golden skies and cherry lips

Frozen sodas and fingertips

That brushed like sparks under the heat

It felt like time was on repeat

Sweet summer, holdin’ on to you

Fireflies, and skies so blue

We were young and wild and free

Dancing with the ocean breeze

Sweet summer, you still haunt my dreams

With tan lines and secret things

You were mine, and I was yours

Like a wave that kissed the shore

Old songs on the radio, windows down

Laughin' ‘til we cried, no one around

You wrote our names in the sand so slow

Promised me you'd never let me go

But seasons change and stories fade

The heat cooled off, we went our ways

Still I taste that peach ice tea

And hear you singin’ back to me

Sweet summer, holdin’ on to you

Fireflies, and skies so blue

We were young and wild and free

Dancing with the ocean breeze

Sweet summer, you still haunt my dreams

With tan lines and secret things

You were mine, and I was yours

Like a wave that kissed the shore

Now it's colder where I stand

But I still feel your sunburned hand

August slipped through like sand

But I wish we had one more chance

Sweet summer, stay a little while

Give me back your golden smile

One more drive, one more kiss

One more moment I still miss

Sweet summer, you were everything

A sunset wrapped in silver wings

You were mine, and I was yours

Like a wave that kissed the shore
