Lyrics
I'm headed toward home this summer afternoon, Northbound highway, couldn't be too soon
Glancing to my left in the mirror I see
Convertible Honda speeding towards me
Her hair was blowing an attitude air
Dark eyes hidden behind a Ray-Ban pair
A well timed turn of my head to see
This blonde in the Honda smile at me
Blonde in the Honda, Blonde in the Honda
Blonde in the Honda, Smile at me
She passed me once, then two times more
And glanced and smiled just like before
And I smiled back all three times
Then sat down to write these lines
There was something in her youthful face
That took me to a familiar place
Beachside walks are thought of often
A world away and not forgotten
Chorus
So what am I saying about this girl
I think it's her youth invading my world
I can't turn back to those salad days
All I can do is refrain this phrase
