Just A Memory

You helped me finish my term paper

Took all night to get it done

Then we turned it in and loaded up my car

Seven hundred miles later, like bandits on the run

Girl, neither one of us had been that far

On a blanket on the beach there you are...

Chorus

Cut off jeans and sunburned shoulders

Reaching out to pull me closer

Watching that red sun sink lower

In the gulf of mexico

The taste of sweet strawberry wine

On your lips as you kiss mine

Holdin on like you and I aint never lettin go

Feels way too real to be, just a memory

I think about that summer almost every day

It'll always be my favourite time with you.

Cause right there for a moment, I know I held everything

Then September came and you just disappeared

Girl, sometimes I close my eyes and you're right here...

Chorus

(Instrumental)

No matter what I do there's gonna be a few things I'll never forget

Cut off jeans and sunburned shoulders

Reaching out to pull me closer

Watching that red sun sink lower

In the gulf of mexico

The taste of sweet strawberry wine

On your lips as you kiss mine

Holdin on like you and I aint never lettin go

Feels way too real to be

Oh it's way too real to be just a memory.
