From the recording That Summer
Written by Jonathon Brannon
Lyrics
Long days, longer nights
Far away from city lights
Country roads and fireflies
I remember that summer
Warm breeze, windows down
You and me, no one around
Our favorite song, crank the sound
I remember
Oh, I remember…
That summer
School let out, we were chasing every sunset
Didn’t have a plan, we just went where the road led
Gas was cheap, so we’d drive until it got dark
Talking ‘bout forever underneath the stars
Every little town had a place we’d stop
Old truck parked by the edge of the lot
Back then all we needed was time
Never thought those days would be so hard to find
Long days, longer nights
Far away from city lights
Country roads and fireflies
I remember that summer
Warm breeze, windows down
You and me, no one around
Our favorite song, crank the sound
I remember
Oh, I remember…
That summer
Life moved on, everybody found a new lane
Different towns, different jobs, different last names
Funny how a song can take you right back
To a warm July night and an old dirt path
If I had one wish, I’d go there again
Just for one more drive with my old best friend
Some memories never grow old
They’re still there every time the summer rolls
Long days, longer nights
Far away from city lights
Country roads and fireflies
I remember that summer
Warm breeze, windows down
You and me, no one around
Our favorite song, crank the sound
I remember
Oh, I remember…
That summer
Do you remember?
Like I remember?
‘Cause I remember…
Long days, longer nights
Far away from city lights
Country roads and fireflies
I remember that summer
Warm breeze, windows down
You and me, no one around
Our favorite song, crank the sound
I remember
Oh, I remember…
That summer
