Lyrics This Boy's Last Summer - The Night Flight Orchestra

This Boy's Last Summer

I have tried to make myself forget it
Along with the passing of time
But I’ve been afraid to admit it
What it is I’m trying to find
All those things I’ve tried for nothing
Every word I said was a lie
Deep inside I new I was crazy
Waiting for you down the line
Over and over and over again
Through these cheap and dirty thrills
Over and over I’ve learned
Only true love kills
If those haunted memories enter my mind
Only you can save me this time
Somewhere deep inside
You know you’ll always be mine
(It is this boy’s, this boy’s)
Cruising down the streets of our youth
On this ocean-front avenue
If I show you all of my dreams here tonight
It’s this boy’s last summer this time
How you can deny, you don’t see it
How you’re always on my mind
Never lost your grip for a minute
All through every sleepless night
If you just want silence you’ve got it
But you can’t extinguish the light
Everybdoy said I was crazy
Waiting for you down the line
Over and over and over again
Through these cheap and dirty thrills
Over and over I’ve learned
Only true love kills
If those haunted memories enter my mind
Only you can save me this time
Somewhere deep inside
You know you’ll always be mine
Cruising down the streets of our youth
On this ocean-front avenue
If I show you all of my dreams here tonight
It’s this boy’s last summer this time
Over and over and over again
Through these cheap and dirty thrills
Over and over I’ve learned
Only true love kills
When those haunted memories enter my mind
Only you can save me this time
Somewhere deep inside
You know you’ll always be mine
(It is this boy’s, this boy’s)
Cruising down the streets of our youth
On this ocean-front avenue
If I show you all of my dreams here tonight
It’s this boy’s last summer this time
