[Verse 1] I remember that summer by the riverside You wore that old sundress, eyes open wide We’d skip stones across the gentle stream Laughing at nothing, lost inside a dream [Verse 2] Your father called from the porch, said “don’t stay out too late” But we’d sneak past curfew, hearts full of fate I’d strum my old guitar while you sang along Two imperfect souls trying to find where we belong [Chorus] And oh, the days they slip like sand through our hands But I can still hear your laugh, I can still see your plans We were young, we were foolish, we were free Dancing in the sunlight, just you and me [Verse 3] Autumn came with its golden haze We rode down the country roads, lost in a daze Your scarf in the wind, your hair in a curl I felt like the luckiest boy in the world [Bridge] Even now, when the leaves start to fall I think of your smile, I remember it all Life moves on, but memories stay And I’d give anything to go back one day [Chorus 2] And oh, the days they slip like sand through our hands But I can still hear your laugh, I can still see your plans We were young, we were foolish, we were free Dancing in the sunlight, just you and me [Verse 4] Years went by, the town stayed the same I still walk past the old river, whisper your name The ice cream truck is long gone, the pier has new boards But I keep the echoes of our shared chords [Final Chorus] Oh, the days they slip like sand through our hands But I can still hear your laugh, I can still see your plans We were young, we were foolish, we were free Dancing in the sunlight, just you and me [Outro] So here’s to the summers, the dreams we once knew To the echoes of laughter, and the sky so blue Though the years have moved on, my heart will remain By that riverside, where we danced in the rain
