is that even the correct title? is there a "the" in front of it.

Ti, ji The Don Henley

this song was playing at Safeway when I was just there and it is a classic. am i safe in assuming that lxy and jergins hate it?

i hate that recent pop punk cover of it.

i feel like this song (the original version) should have become dated and cheesy by now, but it avoids it every time. It has a nice, propulsive beat and his voice is perfect when the chorus comes in. i don't even like don henley.

Complimentary “Boys Of Summer” ringtone
Nobody on the road,
nobody on the beach.
I feel it in the air,
the summers out of reach

Empty lake, empty streets,
the sun goes down alone.
I'm driving by your house
though i know that you not home...

And i can see you
you brown skin shining in the sun
you got your hair combed back
sunglasses on baby

and i can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the boy of summer have gone.

out on the road today
i saw a dead head sticker on a cadillac
a 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 for ever
i should just let them go and...

i can see you
your brown skin shining in the sun
you know your walking real slow
smiling at everyone

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 drove me crazy?
remember how i made you scream?

now i don't understand what happed to our love
now baby gonna get you back
gonna show you what i'm made of...

i can see you
your brown skin shining in the sun
you got your top pulled down,
radio on baby

and i can tell you
my love for you will still be strong
after the boys of summer have gone.
