Summertime Love
Well I met you the summer we turned 19
Hair was straight and your eyes were blue
Well I remember them bein' out of ice cream
So we grabbed a case of beer and said that will do
I still remember our first kiss
Didn't ask permission, but you were glad I did
Ain't it funny how life works out
One day you swear there ain't no doubt
I'm gonna wind up all alone
Then one day fate finds you and she's standin there
Pretty pink dress and boots
And you think you found the one
'Cause there ain't nothin' better
Than a summertime love
We spent 4th of July somewhere in East Texas
Cold beer on sunburned lips never felt so good
Skinny-dippin' in the creek
All of my friends thought you were crazy
But it didn't stop them from joinin' in
And I still miss them to this day
If they were here, they'd agree when I say
That ain't it funny how life works out?
One day you swear, there ain't no doubt
I'm gonna wind up all alone
Then one day fate finds you
And she's standing there, a black swimsuit
That's when you think you found the one
'Cause there ain't nothin' better
Than a summertime love
Than a summertime love
I would be lyin'
If I were to say that I didn't feel like dyin'
The day you drove away
But I know that I'll see your smiling face
Come May
And ain't it funny how life works out?
One day you swear there ain't no doubt
I'm gonna wind up all alone
Then one day fate finds you
And she's standin' there in
A wedding dress and boots
And you know
You found the one
'Cause there ain't nothing better
Than a summertime love
It all started with a summertime love
