We Were Like

Two sets of lips on a Pepsi Cola

In the middle of the summertime heat, you kept it cool

We were West Coast kids ridin' round in your Chevy Nova

Said you'd come back for me when you had to leave to go back to school

But we were like fire

Summer breeze, 70s, all-nighter

Let the beach be the background choir

Singing like, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

We were like a movie

Said I looked too good in that two-piece

And for those three months, you knew me

Remember those, remember those nights?

We were like

Bare feet and blue eyes on the boardwalk

We were counting the stars and the days till you had to go

But since then, nobody ever made my heart stop

Just like you did when we lit that summer glow

'Cause we were like fire

Summer breeze, 70s, all-nighter

Let the beach be the background choir

Singing like, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

We were like a movie

Said I looked too good in that two-piece

And for those three months, you knew me

Remember those, remember those nights?

We were like

Slow dance, romance, sundress, sunshine

Your name, cool rain, so good till goodbye

We were like

Yeah, we were like

But we were like fire

Summer breeze, 70s, all-nighter

Let the beach be the background choir

Singing like, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

We were like a movie

Said I looked too good in that two-piece

And for those three months, you knew me

Remember those, remember those nights?

We were like

Slow dance, romance, sundress, sunshine

Your name, cool rain, so good till goodbye, yeah

Tan skin, golden tattoo, your smile

The end, pretend forever for a while

We were like
