Now when I first heard it I immediately thought of the summer of my senior year in high school. That was our story to a tee.

When the lead singer explained the real sotry I was shocked to see how wrong I was.

No, there was a clipping from Joisey about an old couple that took off and they were found dead after a long search:

I read somwhere that the song was inspired by an article in a newspaper about a couple of old age that went to visit their family, but never arrived -
Just a side note, the people in the article that the song was written about ended up driving off a cliff

Summer 1991 was my endless summer- thats why the song reminds me so much of that summer. Crazy times, and if you ever meet me I'll tell you why I had to count the stars in the sky.

We had a couple out here that was driving home from town and drove off into a lake back in the early 1900s. Their car was found not long ago and the body of the man, too, but not the body of the woman, although her personal effects were there. They figure she is hidden under lake bottom stuff.

Well, if I am not raptured, I would like to live to at least the year 2062 and then die in my sleep or in some quick accident while doing something I love.

fair enuff.....I could go for that too

2112 would be better, but I will be 95 in 2062, so I don't think I will make 2112.
