Barefoot Memories

Summertime Moods

Tattoos and tan lines

Cigarettes and moonshine

Weekends made for killing time

Sweet barefoot memories

Egg rolls and sushi

Moonlight and warm breezes

You there beside me

In smooth satin sheets

****

Let the music sweep us both away

As the shadows fall at sunset

Let reflections in the window sway

Stirring memories we don’t know yet

Drifting like a boat to shore

Till the sand kisses our toes

Silhouettes forever craving more

As the anticipation grows

****

Long drives and sunshine

Hot beats and cool vibes

Hearts melt every-time

Our eyes and lips meet

So, come on, let’s do it

I’d die for that sweet kiss

It’d be a crime if we missed

Those barefoot memories

****

Let the music sweep us both away

As the shadows fall at sunset

Let reflections in the window sway

Stirring memories we don’t know yet

Drifting like a boat to shore

Till the sand kisses our toes

Silhouettes forever craving more

As the anticipation grows
