She grew up in that little beach town,
I was 17 just hanging out,
For a couple crazy months out on the coast,

Well she smiled at me,
Said her name was Daisy,
I just laughed when she called me baby,

Cause what do you say to that,
Standin there watching the sun go down,
She wrapped her arms around me,

But all I could think about was,

Chorus:

How long, how long,
Could I really hang on,
To somethin like her,

Cause I knew in my heart she could never be mine,
But It felt so good just spending time,
With that girl,

And lookin back now I smile every time I think,
Well I was just her summerthing,


We were sneakin beers, confessing dreams,
sinking quarters in the Pac-Man machine,
and making out in the backseat of a car,

She taught me how to forget about time,
Live for the moment and let love ride,
And how it feels to hold a borrowed heart,

Cold air came and closed it all down,
She tried to sell me a sweet goodbye,
But all I could think about was,


Chorus


How long, how long,
Could I really hang on,
To somethin like her,

Cause I knew in my heart she could never be mine,
But It felt so good just spending time,
With that girl,

Lookin back now I smile every time I think,
Oh lookin back now I smile every time I think,
Well I was just her summerthing

Well I was just her summerthing
