Lyrics Ben Rue – We Were Over

Like a bottle rocket on the 4th of July
We shot up to heaven in the blink of a summer sky
Time on our hands beer in our cups
Nights didn’t end ’till the sun came creeping up

We were over the moon, over the stars
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad’s car
Flying high like a seaside roller coaster
You were all over me, I was all over you
We were bare feet, boardwalks, rocky road and tattoos
But when that summer wind blew colder
We were over, over…

When I see summer steam fogging up a window
I see your finger drawing hearts with little x’s and o’s
Beach towel kisses on the edge of the dock
A cannon ball splash untying that bikini top
The salt, the sand, your lips, your hands
Held onto mine like they’d never let go

We were over the moon, over the stars
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad’s car
Flying high like a seaside roller coaster
You were all over me, I was all over you
We were bare feet, boardwalks, rocky road and tattoos
But when that summer wind blew colder
We were over…

Wave after wave keeps rolling in
Memories crashing, taking me to way back when

We were over the moon, over that stars
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad’s car
