Hot sun, dancin' on the river

We'd sit on the bank and watch the world roll by

Our feet in the water, she'd press her lips to mine

We were so long on love but short on time

She could be a honeymoon sweet and a little wild

And she was mine, for a little while



(Chorus)

And I laugh everytime I start to think about her

We sent the summer out in style and

She's gone but she left with a smile

'Cause she was mine for a little while



We'd take a ride and head on down next to Airport Road

Put the seats back and watch the planes leave town

She always said nobody's strong enough to tie her down

oh...But I wasn't lookin' for that anyhow

I knew she'd leave but I didn't know when

It matters to me now, but it didn't back then



(Chorus)

And I laugh everytime I start to think about her

We sent the summer out in style

She'd gone but she left with a smile

'Cause she was mine for a little while



(Bridge)

I keep seeing pictures now of me and her

And those summer nights

My mind's fills with her, oh and it's all right



And I laugh when I start to think about us

We sent the summer out in style and

She's gone but she left me with a smile

'Cause she was mine

Yes, she was mine

For a little while
