I know that the summer holds some type of magic That it somehow becomes a physical reincarnation of nostalgia Where time stands still when we are given a chance to have the perfect night Where past loves can meet again, on brick or carpet For one more night of infatuation and hand holding Where hate drowns in amaretto or burns out in the sun And we return to one cohesive group, singing old songs that hold more meaning than any of us realize We jump to the beat of that one perfect year, entwined in our scents and lisps and favorite beers I know that when fall returns, we won't be drinking Miller Lite with our best friends on the back porch You won't be close to saying something real I will return to bad habits in dark basements We will all have to go on in real time speed Leaving the Band of Bad Kids Breaks my heart every year

Return to the Place of Destruction
I know that the summer holds some type of magic That it somehow becomes a physical reincarnation of nostalgia Where time stands still when we are given a chance to have the perfect night Where past loves can meet again, on brick or carpet For one more night of infatuation and hand holding Where hate drowns in amaretto or burns out in the sun And we return to one cohesive group, singing old songs that hold more meaning than any of us realize We jump to the beat of that one perfect year, entwined in our scents and lisps and favorite beers I know that when fall returns, we won't be drinking Miller Lite with our best friends on the back porch You won't be close to saying something real I will return to bad habits in dark basements We will all have to go on in real time speed Leaving the Band of Bad Kids Breaks my heart every year
