[Verse 1]
Rolled in as wild and free
As a clear water beach at seventeen memory
Eyes blue as the July sky
Sent shivers down my spine
Every time that he'd smile at me

[Pre-Chorus]
The way he took off that white t-shirt
The way he looked walking out of that water
And it just got hotter, and hotter

[Chorus]
The tan line's fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boom box
Our bare feet in the sand
Makin' out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hands
He drove away the first of September
But I remember
Yeah I remember
He talked like
And he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer oh
He burned like summer, summer oh

[Verse 2]
His kiss was a sweet salt breeze
Had a hold on me like the moon pulls the tide
Took me up on the ferris wheel
And I swear it feels like I never came down from
The high

[Pre-Chorus]
I know we never said forever, but something 'bout
It felt like it would never end
[Chorus]
The tan line's fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boom box
Our bare feet in the sand
Makin' out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hands
He drove away the first of September
But I remember
Yeah I remember
He talked like
And he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer oh
He burned like summer, summer oh

[Bridge]
Bottle rocket sparks in the Florida sky
Summer! Summer!
Something that bright's gotta burn out sometime

[Chorus]
The tan line's fading on my sun kissed skin
Hits me like a wave when I think about it
Sublime on the boom box
Our bare feet in the sand
Makin' out on the boardwalk
My heart on fire in his hands
He drove away the first of September
But I remember
Yeah I remember
He talked like
And he walked like
And he looked like
And he burned like summer, summer oh
[Outro]
Yeah! He burned like summer. Summer!
Oh, and he burned like summer
