We were drinking in the cabin
Middle of the summer
And you told me we'd be friends forevermore
We were running through the wildwood
And oh how I remember
All the times you'd laugh and finish my sentences
We stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
You and me foolishly wanna be getting old
When we stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
These days we're always living in the afterglow
Living in the afterglow
We been talking in the evening
I can tell you're slowing down
Got life you wanna savor for while
Right before we hang up
Told me that you missed the sound
Of the songs I made up under those summer skies
We stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
You and me foolishly wanna be getting old
When we stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
These days we're always living in the afterglow
Living in the afterglow
♪
We were just kids on the day we met
We were 13 playing old cassettes
Those gold days I remember always always
We were 16 learning how to drive
We were 22 made it out of school alive
Those gold days I'll remember always
We stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
You and me foolishly wanna be getting old
When we stayed up to the morning light
Talking 'bout the girls we like
These days we're always living in the afterglow
Living in the afterglow
