[Verse 1: Erin Kinsey, Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr]
You'd be my firework memory burned in my mind
You'd be my sneakin'-out, windows-down midnight drive
I'd be your runnin'-late, made-you-wait Friday night
And I could say you were the right person, wrong time
You'd still be that Chesney song, I'd still have your Texas T-shirt
Still smile when I hear your name if we'da just stayed

[Chorus: Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr]
A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry Coke mixed with somethin' that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye
Instead of knowin' how it ends, we would always get to wondеr
Coulda just stayed the ones that got away for еach other
If we'da just stayed a summer
We should've stayed a summer

[Verse 2: Josh Kerr, Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr]
Wouldn't know how bad we'd fight two drinks in, 2 AM
Wouldn't know how good you lie, wouldn't know how jealous I get
Wouldn't hate that Chesney song, torn up that Texas T-shirt
Wouldn't hurt when I hear your name if we'da just stayed

[Chorus: Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr]
A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry Coke mixed with somethin' that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye
Instead of knowin' how it ends, we would always get to wonder
Coulda just stayed the ones that got away for each other
If we'da just stayed a summer
We shoulda stayed a summer
[Bridge: Erin Kinsey, Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr]
We shoulda just, shoulda just, shoulda just stayed a summer, mm-mm
Coulda just, coulda just, coulda just stayed a summer
If we'da just stayed

[Chorus: Erin Kinsey & Josh Kerr, Erin Kinsey]
A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry Coke mixed with somethin' that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye
Instead of knowin' how it ends, we would always get to wonder
Coulda just stayed the ones that got away for each other
If we'da just stayed a summer

[Outro: Erin Kinsey]
We shoulda stayed a summer
Shoulda been nothin' more than a summer
