Was the start of the summer and the days were getting hotter, yeah Eighteen was just around the corner and mama made plans for a party by the poolside I blew out the candles, smiling and laughing, sister speaking wine while the camera was flashing You grabbed my hand right on time, you looked so cute with your tattoo and your blue jeans and you said to me Let's go flying, take me home Give me where the wind blows, no use crying, we're not thinking about tomorrow We drug out those summer nights for a long teenage goodbye * Chasing fireworks, flashing down the Carolina shore, yeah Arms around me and you called me yours That salty kiss made me forget about my sunburned Snuck in barefoot to a hole in the wall, got to do some karaoke till the last call Sang with the birds, every season has a turn, turn, turn So let's go Let's go We're flying, take me in, give me where the wind blows No use crying We're not thinking about tomorrow We drug out those summer nights For a long teenage goodbye A chill in the air, just around the bendYou said we're never gonna get this time back againBack againSo let's go flyingTake me anywhere the wind blowsNo use cryingWe're not thinking about tomorrowWe drug out those summer nightsFor a long teenage goodbyeFor a long teenage goodbye
