Lyrics:

[English]

Every time that first warm breeze blows in, I think about it

I can almost smell that salt in the wind

Wondering if your number is still the same

Hey girl, I doubt it

I haven't called it since God knows when

Since moonlight on the shoreline

Heart with my name next to yours

Some memories stick around like white sand in the floor board

Here's to my red-light dashboard drummer

Best sunsets that I ever saw

Every kiss like a cold rum runner

I still remember it all, September calling it off

Here's to the rise and fall of summer

You said I wouldn't miss you when you got back home to Dallas

And I said you oughta come see me at state

You were the one who taught me how heartbreak happens

Feeling the sting and then watching it fade

Like a sunburn on your shoulders

Girl, that's all it was to you

When I think about you and me

It's a little more like a tattoo

Here's to my red-light dashboard drummer

Best sunsets that I ever saw

Every kiss like a cold rum runner

I still remember it all, September calling it off

Here's to the rise and fall of summer

Like moonlight on the shoreline

Heart with my name next to yours

Some memories stick around like white sand in the floor board

Here's to my red-light dashboard drummer

Best sunsets that I ever saw

Every kiss like a cold rum runner

I still remember it all, September calling it off

Here's to the rise and fall of summer (fall of summer)

I still remember it all (fall of summer)

Here's to the rise and fall of summer
