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
