My Thoughts took a detour
On the back roads of my mind
To a beautiful sunny lake shore
44 years behind
Hand in Hand we walked the beach
Scratched our names in the sand
I thought those days were out of reach
Until I heard our song again
It was me and you and a dog named Boo
All that summer of 1971
It was me and you learning what love can do
I’ll never forget our season in the sun
Now I wonder where you are
And if you still remember me
Have you kept the polaroids
Of our teenage tapestry
I try and leave that dream to rest
Though I still keep my grin
But I called that DJ and make a request
Please play that song again
