Hot sun, dancin' on the river
We'd sit on the bank and watch the world roll by
Our feet in the water, she'd press her lips to mine
We were so long on love but short on time
She could be honeymoon sweet and a little wild
And she was mine for a little while

I laugh when I start to think about us
We sent the summer out in style
She's gone but she left me with a smile
?Cause she was mine for a little while

We'd take a drive and park down next to airport road
Put the seats back and watch the planes leave town
She always said nobody's strong enough to tie her down
But I wasn't lookin' for that anyhow
I knew she'd leave but I didn't know when
It matters, but didn't back then

I laugh when I start to think about us
We sent the summer out in style
She's gone but she left me with a smile
?Cause she was mine for a little while

I keep seeing pictures now of me and her
And those summer nights
My minds filled with her, oh and it's alright

I laugh when I start to think about us
We sent the summer out in style
She's gone but she left me with a smile
?Cause she was mine for a little while
