You showed this small-town boy a few new ways to fly
You stole my heart like the stars steal blue from the sky
California cool too hot to handle, burning both ends of the candle
Reckless kids did that summer right
We were the ones singing bye bye American Pie, oh
Forever young, those were the best damn days of my life, oh yeah
Sometimes my mind rewinds and I'm
Somewhere back there with you
Under the sun, over the moon
Never seen a plain white t-shirt look so good, nah
You dreaming out loud laying back on my Chevy hood
I smile every time that summer rains, Jack and Coke will never taste the same
For a moment in time, the universe said you were mine
We were the ones singing bye bye American Pie, oh
Forever young, those were the best damn days of my life, oh yeah
Sometimes my mind rewinds and I'm
Somewhere back there with you
Under the sun, over the moon
Oh, do you ever look back baby?
Yeah, the times we had baby
We were the ones singing bye bye American Pie
Forever young, those were the best damn days of my life, yeah
We were the ones singing bye bye American Pie, oh
Forever young, those were the best damn days of my life, oh yeah
Sometimes my mind rewinds and I'm
Somewhere back there with you
Under the sun, over the moon
Under the sun and over the moon
