On another note, this song is dedicated to the greatest group of friends a person could ask for. You know who you are.
we hung out all the time
i heard my first Frank Black song
back in the summer of 99
we watched 38 movies
in only 3 months, it's true
i met six girls named Sarah
and wore some pants that weren't mine too
and when i look back now
that summer seemed to last forever
and if i had the chance
yeah i'd always wanna be there
those were the best days of my life
back in the summer of 99
played Sixpence at the Luau
i think you thought it was cool
i got to start my life over
i'll bet you never knew
sitting on the white house porch
rockin out to Five Iron Frenzy
walkin through the woods at night
i keep forgetting Frank's CDs
those were the best days of my life
back in the summer of 99
playin soccer with no shoes on
a perfect summer can't be real
swimmin with all my clothes on
i'm tellin you thats how i feel
that those were the best days of my life
now look the times are changin
look at everything that's come and gone
school started and things got different
some got sad and some moved on
but either way i had a great time
you're all my friends and yeah i love you
from Sneakers to last week's X-files
i gave my heart to God cuz of you
you were the best friends of my life
back in the summer of 99
yeah the summer of 99
