Hot sun, dancin' on the river
we sit on the bank, watch the world go by
our feet in the water, she pressed her lips to mine
we were so long on love and short on time
she could be, a honeymoon suite and a little wild
she was mine, oh for a little while and
Chorus
I laugh evertime I start to think about us
We sent that summer out in style and
she's gone but she left me with a smile
she was mine for a little while
Verse 2
We'd take a ride, and head on down to airport road
put the seats back; watch the planes leave town
She always said "No body's strong enough to tie her down
oh but I wasn't looking for that, anyhow
I knew she'd leave but I didn't know when
it matters to me now, oh but it didn't back then and
Repeat chorus
Verse 3
I keep seeing pictures now of me and her and those summer nights
my mind fills with her, oh but it's allright cause
Repeat chorus
ending
she was mine, yeah
she was mine, for a little while
