ORIGINAL SONG: "Boys of Summer" Don Henley (1984).
STYLES: Classic rock; pop/rock; arena rock.
NOTES: This is Doc's POV about Clara as well as he & Marty's experiences in 1885. I also came up with this idea over ten years ago, (believe it or not).
100 years from home.
Stranded in the past.
MadDog's on the loose.
DeLorean's outta gas.
Standin' at the ravine. You're ridin' through town alone.
I saved you from your horse. Now I know, we're in love.
CHORUS 1:
I can see you, the new schoolteacher in town.
You got your telescope damaged.
I'll fix it up, baby.
I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong.
After this scientist, err, blacksmith is gone.
NEXT VERSE:
After the festival that night.
I wonder if it was a dream.
Told me how you love Jules Verne.
And we studied biology.
Now I'm not from the past, I had to say the truth.
But, babe you just slapped me back, now I'm drinkin' whiskey over you.
CHORUS 2.
I can see you, you're thinkin' I made it up.
Then you went to my shop, saw our railroad model.
I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong.
After this scientist, err, blacksmith is gone.
SYNTHESIZER/GUITAR BREAK.
Out on the road today, I saw Marty getting himself into a mess.
A little voice inside his head said, 'Don't do that, wear a bulletproof vest.'
The tombstone disappeared, what do ya know?
We're leaving town forever, I should just let you go, but.
CHORUS 3:
I can see you, climbing on top of the train.
You got the whistle blowin'.
Purple hat on, baby.
I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong.
After this scientist, err, blacksmith is gone.
CHORUS 4:
I can see you, not gonna make it here in time.
Marty's in 1985.
And it's just us here now, baby.
I can tell you, my love for you will still be strong.
Now that this scientist, Doc Brown ain't gone.
GUITAR SOLO/FADE-OUT
