The Boys of Summer
DJ Sammy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm drivin' by your house
Though I know you're not at home
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy
Remember how I made you scream
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of
I can see you
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
Out on the road today, I saw a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said, "Don't look back, you can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but
I can see you
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
I can see you
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
The lyrics of DJ Sammy's "The Boys of Summer" speak about nostalgia and lost love. The singer describes driving by the house of someone he used to love and seeing them walk slowly with a smile on their face, but knowing their love is over. He reflects on the past when they were crazy about each other and how he wants to get her back, but can't understand what happened to their love. The chorus repeats the image of the person's brown skin shining in the sun and the singer's love for her still being strong after the boys of summer have gone, signaling a love that endures despite the passing of time.
The song is built around the theme of memories that can't be forgotten. The empty lake and streets, the deadhead sticker on a Cadillac, and the brown skin shining in the sun are all visual elements that emphasize the passing of time and the loss of love. The singer sees his former love from a distance and longs for a second chance, but ultimately knows that the past cannot be recaptured.
Overall, "The Boys of Summer" is a powerful reminiscence about past love and the memories that linger. The lyrics evoke a sense of melancholy and longing for something that can never be regained.

Nobody on the beach
The beach is deserted and empty

I sense something intangible or impossible to describe in the environment around me
The summerโs out of reach
The summer is not accessible anymore, either because it has ended or because something else is preventing me from enjoying it
Empty lake, empty streets
The streets and lake are empty and there is no one around
The sun goes down alone
The sun sets by itself, without any human company
I'm drivin' by your house
I'm driving by your house, where you live
Though I know you're not at home
Despite knowing that you're not at home, I still drive by your house
But I can see you
Even though you are not with me physically, I can still see you in my mind
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
Your sun-kissed, brown skin is glistening in the sunlight

You have styled your hair by combing it backwards and you are wearing sunglasses

Remember how you made me crazy
I recall how you drove me crazy
Remember how I made you scream
I remember how I made you scream

I'm determined to win you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of
I'm going to demonstrate all of my capabilities and qualities to impress you
I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
I picture you walking leisurely, greeting and smiling at everyone you pass by
Out on the road today, I saw a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
While driving on the road today, I noticed a sticker of a skull on a Cadillac car
A little voice inside my head said, 'Don't look back, you can never look back'
A voice in my mind cautioned me against dwelling on the past, as I can never go back and change it
I thought I knew what love was
I believed I had a good understanding of love before, but now I'm not sure
What did I know?
In hindsight, I realize I didn't know anything about love
Those days are gone forever
Those days of our relationship are buried in the past and will never come back
I should just let them go but
I know I need to move on, but I'm not quite ready to let go
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby
You are driving with the top of your car down, listening to the radio
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
You styled your hair back and are wearing Wayfarers sunglasses
