Stayed A Summer

You'd be my firework
Memory burned in my mind
You'd be my sneaking out
Windows down midnight drive
I'd be your running late
Make you wait Friday night
And I could say
You were the right person, wrong time

You'd still be that Chesney song
Still have your Texas t-shirt
Still smile when I hear your name...
If we'da just stayed

A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry coke mixed with something that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye, instead of knowing how it ends
We would always get to wonder
We could just stay
The one that got away for each other
If we'da just stayed a summer
We should've stayed a summer...

Wouldn't know how bad we'd fight
Two drinks in, 2 am
Wouldn't know how good you lie
Wouldn't know how jealous I get

Wouldn't hate that Chesney song
Or torn up your Texas t-shirt
It wouldn't hurt when I hear your name
If we'da just stayed

A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry coke mixed with something that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye, instead of knowing how it ends
We would always get to wonder
We could just stay
The one that got away for each other
If we'da just stayed a summer
We should've stayed a summer...

Shoulda just, shoulda just, shoulda just stayed a summer
Coulda just, coulda just, coulda just stayed a summer
If we'da just stayed...

A couple kids kissin' in the front of that red 4Runner
Cherry coke mixed with something that we stole from your brother
Just a July goodbye, instead of knowing how it ends
We would always get to wonder
We could just stay
The one that got away for each other
If we'da just stayed a summer
We should've stayed a summer
Should've been nothing more than a summer
