"Bottle Rockets" lyrics

Everybody's got a summer that they can't forget
They hold on to and go back to
Yeah, mine's on the Carolina coast
Still burnin' in my mind like a red sunset
Chasin' embers till September
What I remember most

Bottle rockets in the sky
Bare feet in the sand
Bonfire in her eyes
Cold beer in the can
Moonlight on the waves
Her kiss in the dark
The smile on her face when she'd make me break out my guitar and play
Hold my hand
Hold my hand

I can still feel her fingers wrapped up in mine
Can still hear her laughin', see her dancing
Yeah, makin' more than that sundress spin
Who says you can't go back in time?
Yeah, when that song, it comes on
I'm on rewind and I'm seventeen again

Bottle rockets in the sky
Bare feet in the sand
Bonfire in her eyes
Cold beer in a can
Moonlight on the waves
Her kiss in the dark
The smile on her face when she'd make me break out my guitar and play
Hold my hand
I want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
Oh

I got a hand for you
Yeah, I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you
Won't you let me run with you?

Bottle rockets in the sky
Bare feet in the sand
Bonfire in her eyes
Cold beer in a can
Moonlight on the waves
Her kiss in the dark
The smile on her face when she'd make me break out my guitar and play
Hold my hand
I want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to the promised land
Hold my hand
Maybe we can't change the world, but
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can

(Hold my hand) Bottle rockets in the sky
The best that I can (Hold my hand)
Bare feet in the sand
The best that I can (Hold my hand)
Bonfire in her eyes
Oh
(Hold my hand) I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can
