I'm sitting by a bonfire watching her swaying Me and my buddies and the guitar playing Sipping on forties on a Saturday night Buzzing through a chorus of Dixieland Delight Back through my mind like smoke She was smoking hot, a whiskey shot, a cherry Coke

I'll just keep playing back These fragments of time Everywhere I go These moments will shine And it's crystal clear That I don't ever want it to end If I had my way I would never leave Keep building these random memories Turning our days into melodies
