Windows down in your Jeep singing harmony
With the radio singer
Long hike but that night we stayed out till three
Drinking by the river
Running on love fumes, didn't need sleep
Couldn't believe that you wanted me
Wandering through the darkest nights
The heavens were hope it would turn out right
August stars were shining bright
We readied for the great divide
Then you slipped away as fast as summer
When you drove away to Denver
Summer break by the lake tried to keep my cool
When all I want is to touch you
Won't sit too close cause I know you'll go back to school
Don't want to open old wounds
Running on empty, now I can't sleep
Askin' myself if you could still want me
Wandering through the darkest nights
The heavens were hope it would turn out right
August stars were shining bright
We readied for the great divide
Then you slipped away as fast as summer
When you drove away to Denver
Hear from you once a year sending birthday cheer
Is this what we've come to?
Saw your mom back in town I held back my tears
But I told her I missed you
Running on empty now I can't sleep
Hoping that you'll unforget about me
Wandering through the darkest nights
The heavens were hope it would turn out right
August stars were shining bright
We readied for the great divide
Then you slipped away as fast as summer
When you drove away to Denver
