Red light, main street, back seat, graduation gown
Two lanes, four wheels, lake house out on the edge of town
Party all night, wake up sleeping on the ground

Blue lights, hold your beer down, Jesus, hold your breath
High beams outta nowhere scared us half to death
Don't tell Daddy, I'm afraid he ain't got no patience left

That was the summer of us
It didn't last long enough
Fast cars and falling in love
We didn't wanna grow up
Oh, that summer of us

Buck shot, stop sign, live like it's never gonna end
Truth is, real life's a sharp knife when you lose a friend
And we did, so hold tight 'cause they're right
We can't go back again

That was the summer of us
It didn't last long enough
Fast cars and falling in love
We didn't wanna grow up
Oh, that summer of us

That was the summer of us
It didn't last long enough
Fast cars and falling in love
We didn't wanna grow up
Oh, that summer of us

We didn't wanna grow up
Oh, that summer of us
