I found this rhythm in a court from a summer past
(from a summer past) We learned that legends on the asphalt are
built to last
Lace up the high-tops,
feel the concrete heat below
Under the chain-link net where the wild winds blow
If you only knew the game we used to play (used to
play) How the squeak of the sneakers drifts away
Now the court is dry,
the air is cold and clear
I'm holding onto the magic from that golden year (yeah-yeah)
They say that time can change the style of the jump and
drive But I still feel the local playground come alive No limits
here, just a crossover clean and sweet An elegant release as the
buzzer sounds down the street
Just a game on the blacktop...
(on the blacktop)
