| I don’t remember much about that time,
|
| Just the smell of the air and your hand in mine.
|
| Riding the strip, sittin' on my lap
|
| In the back of the truck with the only friends I had.
|
| It was spring break, we were out late,
|
| And I though goodness for heavens sake.
|
| When I saw you…
|
| And then I kissed you…
|
| On a balcony over the sun
|
| In a chair by the rail, high above everyone
|
| We made love as the waves rolled in
|
| And we owned that town for one weekend.
|
| Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand
|
| Like the sound of the boat
|
| Starting up, heading out of the bay
|
| Girl you… faded away.
|
| I still taste the shots on your lips that night,
|
| And the smoke from the club still burns my eyes
|
| Feel of your body takin' off your dress,
|
| Waking up that morning in a tangled mess.
|
| So if I’da known, I’da held on…
|
| A little bit longer and stronger with nothing to lose,
|
| Cause I still see you…
|
| On a balcony over the sun
|
| In a chair by the rail, high above everyone
|
| We made love as the waves rolled in
|
| And we owned that town for one weekend.
|
| Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand
|
| Like the sound of the boat
|
| Starting up, heading out of the bay
|
| Girl you… faded away.
|
| On a balcony over the sun
|
| In a chair by the rail, high above everyone
|
| I watched you drive through the gate
|
| Without saying the words I needed to say.
|
| Like the tan on my skin, our names in the sand
|
| Like the tears on your face
|
| And the sun going down that day
|
| Girl you… faded away.
|
| You faded away. |
