The Last Summer

Neon signs, flashing by me and a
Cherry Coke and crumpled bag of french fries lying
On the passenger seat
Where you used to be

One hand out the window watching
Light play across the hood of my car from the
Streetlights passing by
End of another night

Riding around with your best friends
Doing the same thing every weekend
So this is what it's really like to feel alive

Playing CDs on the stereo
Flipping through stations on the radio
Another Saturday night and we're doing all right

Driving South, past the AU campus
American graffiti ain't got nothin' on us
In a Honda Accord
Driving not to be bored

2 AM by the monumеnt and
No one's around but everything's still brightly lit up
Wе're staring up at Lincoln
In downtown Washington

I'm feeling so alive
With my heart open wide
The whole world seems all right

Laughing friends and neon signs
Cherry Coke and french fries
See you on the other side

These are the nights I will remember
I'll hold onto them forever
Cruisin' around with nowhere specific in mind

Yeah, this is how I will remember
The last summer together
Another Saturday night and we're doing just fine
