Lyrics

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer

Reflecting on a memorable summer experience

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time

Recalling a special and enjoyable time

I guess I never took the time to tell you how much I love you

Expressing regret for not expressing love

Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind

Thoughts of a person and a journey persistently in the mind

You and the road keep flashing through my mind

Continued impact of a person and a journey on thoughts


I caught a sunrise service on a Sunday in North Dakota

Remembering a specific event: sunrise service in North Dakota

Imagine you and me singing in a gospel choir

Imagining a shared experience of singing in a gospel choir

Spent a rainy night on a river in Oklahoma

Recollection of spending a rainy night on an Oklahoma river

Saw the northern lights on a Minnesota night

Memorable experience of witnessing northern lights in Minnesota

And our souls went a little bit higher

Feeling uplifted spiritually during shared experiences


Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer

Repeating the sentiment of having a remarkable summer

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time

Reiterating the notion of a special and enjoyable time

I guess I never took the time to tell you how much I love you

Regret for not expressing love during the recounted experiences

Oow, you and the road keep flashing through my mind

Continued intrusive thoughts of a person and a journey

You and the road keep flashing through my mind

Persistent memories of a person and a journey


The old De Soto died on a hill

Narrating an incident where a car failed in Montana

It couldn't climb in Montana

Describing the failure of the old De Soto on a hill

The kid who bought the wreck said

Quoting the buyer's reaction and decision to purchase the wreck

What the heck, I'll give you a thirty five

Offering a price of thirty-five for the damaged car


So we were on our own

Being left to rely on hitchhiking after the car incident

Had our thumbs to take us home to California

Depicting the journey home using hitchhiking

By the time we made Denver

Reaching Denver and connecting with a truck driver friend

With our truck drivin' friend we had wheels on fire

Expressing a sense of excitement or energy with "wheels on fire"


Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer

Reiteration of the memorable nature of the summer

Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time

Repeating the idea of a special and enjoyable time

I guess I never took the time to tell you how much I love you

Restating regret for not expressing love during the experiences

Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind

Continued persistence of thoughts about the person and journey

You and the road keep flashing through my mind

Continued impact and recurrence of memories

You and the road, you and the road on my mind

Intensifying the focus on thoughts of the person and the journey
