Last American Summer Songtext
von Flatland Cavalry

My palm sweat and butterflies
Popsicles melting in mid-July
Lost in your baby blue eyes
Oh, season of wonder
Cheap cologne, nervous laughs
How does anybody fall so fast?
How my heart broke
It pounded like thunder

The fireworks are burning in your eyes
Outshining all the stars up in the sky
What a thing to get myself into
Here I am, red, white and blue falling under
The last American summer


Late nights, no regrets
Long talks, Marlboro Reds
Can′t get it out of my head, that our days are numbered
Loaded car, leaving slow
Where the hell does innocence go?
How my heart broke
And these days I wonder

Are the fireworks still burning in your eyes?
Still outshining all the stars up in the sky
What a mess to get myself into
Here I am, red, white and blue falling under
Our last American summer

Shoebox memories from the past
Of young love gone by so fast
I still smile when I look back
That last American summer

And the fireworks are burning in your eyes
Outshining all the stars up in the sky
What a thing to get myself into
Here I am red, white and blue falling under
The last American summer
Oh, falling under
The last American summer
