Verse 1:
(Riff 1) 7x + (Riff 2) 1x

Jamie's in love
She's got the summer blowing through her hair
She turns it up
She says, "Tonight, you'll take me anywhere"
Bobby's in luck
He's got a fire burning in his eyes
He turns it up
And he says, "Girl, you better hold on tight"

If you can just let go
Let's go

So leave the lights
It feels too good to have to say goodbye
