Lyrics:
It was undeniably summer
And I was certifiably cool
With my acid-washed jacket
And my stone-washed jeans
I rose out of the kiddie pool
And you were a walking want-ad
You had summer on your side
Our front yards faced each other's
From across the great divide
And the sunbeams cracked like jumper cables
I was cranking up the Mellencamp
And you were dancing barefoot on a picnic table
And damn it, girl
Truly God-damn it, girl
Truly God-damn it, girl
Truly God-damn!
I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
You know you kept some honeysuckle
In that special dresser drawer
And every spring both knees buckle
Both knees buckle and I hit the floor
I hit the floor, every spring
At the hint, of a scent
Of a thought of that
Thing
I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
[Bridge]
The easy way
We used to play
When there was no such thing
As yesterday
We threw our two hearts high
The first half felt like
Flying!
And I still remember every word you said
Like I always said I would
Since you walked on the water bed
Stood right there in my head
For good
