We were havin’ fun,

Havin’ fun in the summer.

Down in New Smyrna Beach,

Didn’t know her, but I loved her.

Sand on the floor mats,

Windows down on A1A.

She’d tap on the dashboard

Every time her song would play.

And we were feelin’ free,

Yeah, we were in the sun.

Didn’t know what it meant,

But we were fallin’ in love.

I think about those nights

By Flagler Tavern’s neon glow.

Laughin’ on the sidewalk

Like we had nowhere to go.

Her hair smelled like salt,

My shirt smelled like the sea.

All those tiny moments

Keep comin’ back to me.

We’d meet up every night

Near the pier after sunset.

She’d bring that old Polaroid,

Try to catch the light just right.

We’d sit on the boardwalk,

Feet swingin’ off the side.

Didn’t talk about the future,

Just let the waves decide.

And we were feelin’ free,

Yeah, we were in the sun.

Didn’t know what it meant,

But we were fallin’ in love.

I think about those nights

By Flagler Tavern’s neon glow.

Laughin’ on the sidewalk

Like we had nowhere to go.

Her hair smelled like salt,

My shirt smelled like the sea.

All those tiny moments

Keep comin’ back to me.
