Now lately I've been livin' in a world that's black and white
Ever since you left all the colors just drained out of my life
And I been goin' through the motions
I can feel myself slippin' away, slippin' away

I keep thinkin' 'bout that summer, South Daytona Beach
We never left the bed, no, we never got no sleep
And I been lookin' back and thinkin' 'bout the way it was
The way we were, we were reckless, so reckless

When I was with you, baby, I was Superman
Yeah, we were sky high, there was nothing better
When I was with you grabbin' that live wire
Where we were Johnny and June in a ring of fire
Now you're caught up in my head like a melody
Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing
Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you

On some starry summer nights I still wonder where you are
Are you still breakin' all the hearts of all the boys that play guitar
And just goin' through the motions of emotions
It's slippin' away, slippin' away

But even with all that, girl, I'd still trade a few heartbeats
For one more sleepless night tangled up between your sheets
And I been lookin' back and thinkin' 'bout the way it was
The way we were and those hundred mile and hour curves

When I was with you, baby, I was Superman
Yeah, we were sky high, there was nothing better
When I was with you grabbin' that live wire
Where we were Johnny and June in a ring of fire
Now you're caught up in my head like a melody
Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing
Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you

When I was with you

Oh, now you're caught up in my head like a melody
Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing
Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you
Hey
