Way back in the East Texas pines,
out of Nacogdoches, one hell of a time,
temperature was pushing 103,
in the shade sitting has her hand on my knee.

Feet swing free from the truck tailgate,
Radio plays The Fireman by George Strait,
Naconiche creek, sings along nearby,
day starts to fade, not a cloud in the sky,

As the sun sets and crickets sing,
fireflies dance in the summer heat,
swirling stars, fallen from the sky,
hope this night lasts forever,
don't want to say goodbye.

Grab a beer from  the cooler, turn around and she's gone,
a trail of clothes towards the creek, I follow along,
the radio changes to big John Cash,
up ahead I hear a giggle and the sound of a splash.

She hollers out, I'm feeling wild and free,
boy kick off your boots and join me,
shedding clothes I dive in for a dip,
I come to the surface and find her lips.

The sun has set and crickets sing,
fireflies dance in the summer heat,
swirling stars, fallen from the sky,
hope this night lasts forever,
don't want to say goodbye.

Cooled off and wet, now tangled up in the truck,
Daft Punk and Pharrel sing a song about luck,
golden flecks from outside reflect in her eyes,
I've found the love of my life, I suddenly realize.

The night continues and crickets sing,
fireflies dance in the summer heat,
swirling stars, fallen from the sky,
hope this night lasts forever,
don't want to say goodbye.

Hope this night lasts forever,
don't want to say goodbye.
