Home-swept butterflies
Popsicles meltin' in mid-July
Lost in your baby-blue eyes
Season of wonder
Cheap cologne, nervous laughs
Had a Xanny, but it falls so fast
Half of my broke
Pounded like thunder

And the fireworks were burnin' in your eyes
Outshinin' all the stars up in the sky
What a thing to get myself into
Here I am, red, white, and blue
Fallin' under
This last American summer

Late nights, no regrets
Long talks, Marlboro Reds
Can't get it out of my head
Our days are numbered
Loaded car, movin' slow
Where the hell does innocence go?
Half of my broke
And these days, I wonder

Are the fireworks still burnin' in your eyes
Outshinin' all the stars up in the sky?
What a thing to get myself into
Here I am, red, white, and blue
Fallin' under
This last American summer

And are the fireworks still burnin' in your eyes
Outshinin' all the stars up in the sky?
What a thing to get myself into
Here I am, red, white, and blue
Fallin' under
This last American summer
