Long Teenage Goodbye

[Verse 1] It was the start of the summer and the days were getting hotter, yeah 18 was just around the corner And mamma made plans for a party by the pool side I blew out the candles, smiling and laughing Sister sneaking wine while the camera was flashing You grabbed my hand right on time You looked so cute with your tattoo and your blue jeans And you said to me [Chorus] Let's go flying Take me anywhere the wind blows No use crying, we're not thinking 'bout tomorrow We drug out those summer nights For a long teenage goodbye [Verse 2] Chasing fireworks flashing down the Carolina shore, yeah Arms around me and you called me yours That salty kiss made me forget about my sunburn Snuck in barefoot through a hole the wall Got to do some karaoke till they yell last call Sing with the birds, every season has a turn, turn, turn [Chorus] So let's go flying Take me anywhere the wind blows No use crying, we're not thinking 'bout tomorrow We drug out those summer nights For a long teenage goodbye [Bridge] A chill in the air's just around the bend You said we're never going to get this time back again Back again [Chorus] So let's go flying Take me anywhere the wind blows No use crying, we're not thinking 'bout tomorrow We drug out those summer nights For a long teenage goodbye For a long teenage goodbye
