lyrics

I remember songs when the radio was always on
Top 40 number one
Happy bubblegum fun

Like a common theme song
for every single summer scene
Rock fests, bad sex, sweat, suburban teen dreams

There were kids we knew who didn’t know they had it all
‘Cause there were kids we knew who wouldn’t make it to the fall
I don’t remember what wasn’t right
Or what made us think we’re so wise
But those summer songs keep playing through my mind

I remember nights slowly fading to the morning light
We were coming down from highs
I fell into her eyes
Wishing there was never anything but this
So nervous we would kiss
It was the best chance I ever missed

There were kids we knew who didn’t know they had it all
‘Cause there were kids we knew who wouldn’t make it to the fall
I don’t remember what wasn’t right
Or what made us think that we would never die
But those summer songs keep playing through my mind

I remember kids
So many naive things that we all said
How did we ever live through stupid shit that we did
Now I sit and think and measure all the time
By counting summer songs gone by
And all the friends that have passed through my life

There were kids we knew who didn’t know they had it all
‘Cause there were kids we knew who wouldn’t make it to the fall
I don’t remember what wasn’t right
Or what made us think that we would never die
But those summer songs keep playing through my mind

I forget more every day
But as time goes by and my memory fades
All those summer songs stay burned into my brain
