Summerthing - Scott Grimes

It was almost a year ago

Walkin' down Beach Blvd, quarter to nine

It was dark and the moon was low

Nothin' going on about when she caught my eye

I looked left and you looked right

I knew right there you were mine tonight

The only thought to think was

I was hoping she was over twenty-one

Had a fake tatoo painted on her right hand

And blue jeans on, walkin' in the sand

I thought, I’m not Mr Right, but I’m mister right now

Then I walked up to her and said how ya do

She looked and me and said who are you

I said, I’m the one you want

I’m the one you need

My summerthing

Ten days and a week had passed

And we’re still going at it like a honeymoon

I know she knows it’ll never last

But I’m hoping that it doesn’t end real soon

I came down and you were here

Flowers on the table and a nice cold beer

You asked me what I thought when I saw you for the very first time

You had a fake tattoo painted on your right hand

And no shoes on, walkin' in the sand

I thought, I’m not Mr Right but I’m mister right now

Then I walked up to you and I said hi

You looked at me and said who’s this guy

I said, I’m the one you want

I’m the one you need

My summerthing

My golden ring

My sunset fling

My summerthing

Then I started to smile

Thought I’d stay for awhile

I looked left and you looked right

I knew right there you were mine for life

The only though to think was you

What once was one is now for two

So will you take my ring?

Cause now you’re my forever summerthing

You had a fake tattoo painted on your right hand

And no shoes on, walkin' in the sand

I thought, I’m not Mr Right but I’m mister right now

Then I walked up to you and I said hi

You looked at me and said who’s this guy

I’m the one you want

I’m the one you need

My summerthing

My summerthing

My summerthing

My summerthing
