Lyrics
THE SUMMER WE TURNED 22
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, nah-na-nah,
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, na-na-nah.
VERSE:
Just me and you in a Volkswagen bus,
All of America calling us.
Fresh out of school, changing the world,
A wide-eyed boy and a head-strong girl.
We said goodbye Mayberry, and we hit the road.
Remember how we fell in love
That summer when we drove--
CHORUS:
Across the plains to Colorado,
Through the Rockies to the coast,
Chasing after summer shadows,
Anywhere that highway goes.
And every place we went together,
There's a trace of me and you
And a love we thought would last forever,
The summer we turned twenty-two.
And we sang, Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, nah-na-nah,
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, na-na-nah.
VERSE:
I've got a picture of you in Yosemite Park,
Your hair so long and your skin so dark.
As far as we knew, the road up ahead,
Was just a long strange trip like the Grateful Dead.
It's been so many years since we lost track,
But every time I think of you,
I swear it takes me back--
(REPEAT CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
Now I miss those days we took for granted in the sun,
When we were young.
It makes me wanna pull out that old highway map
And take you back--
LAST CHORUS:
Across the plains to Colorado,
Through the Rockies to the coast,
Chasing after summer shadows,
'Til that bus runs outta road.
And every place we went together,
There's a trace of me and you
And a love we thought would last forever,
The summer we turned twenty-two.
And we sang Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, nah-na-nah,
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, na-na-nah.
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, nah-na-nah,
Nah-na-na-nah, nah-na-nah, na-na-nah.
