Song lyrics
Walking along beneath the lights of that miracle mile
Me and Mary making our way into the night
You can hear the cries from the carnival rides,
The pinball bells, and the skee-ball slides
Watching the summer sun fall out of sight.

There's a warm wind coming in from off of the ocean
Making it's way past the hotel walls to fill the street
Mary is holding both of her shoes in her hand
Said she likes to feel the sand beneath her feet.

And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland
So tonight I hope that I will do just fine
And I don't see how you could ever be
Anything but mine.

There's a local band playing at the seaside pavillion
And I've got just enough cash to get us in
And as we are dancing, Mary's wrapping her arms around me
And I can feel the sting of summer on my skin.

In the midst of the music I tell her I love her
And we both laugh, ;cause we know it isn't true
Ah, but Mary, there's a summer drawing to an end tonight
And there's so much that I long to do to you.

But in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland
So tonight I hope that I will do just fine
And I don't see how you could ever be
Anything but mine.

--- Instrumental ---

And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland
So tonight I hope that I will do just fine
And I don't see how you could ever be
Anything but mine.

Mary, I don't see how you could ever be
Anything but mine.

--- Instrumental ---

And in the morning I'm leaving, making my way back to Cleveland
So tonight I hope that I will do just fine
And I don't see how you could ever be
Anything but mine...

I have to agree this song is hard to understand. The first time I heard this song was on CMT. I didn't follow it. Then i heard it again on CMT a couple weeks later and really tried to watch it and understand it. This is what i get out of it: it's a song about spending your last night with your "summer love" . you know you are so in love with this person that you don't see how they could ever be with anyone but you (thus "anything but mine") so you try everything possible to make sure the night is perfect and in the end you hope it all works out even though there is a good chance it won't.
Be sure to see the video on CMT (it really helps-I think?)
By the way i think this i one of my all time favorite kenny chesney songs

I love this song, well i love most every Kenny Chesney song. But this one is really good. I like the whole summer love story and going back home, but not wanting to lose the girl you fell in love with. I was truly in love with my ex boyfriend, and we still talk and are kinda friends, but when i heard this song the first time not knowing the story of the song i thought of him. i can't see him as anything but mine. that is was the first thing i got out of the song. But i do think the video tells the story better. ya'll should try to watch it. it's on CMT all the time. it's a great song.

This is my favorite Kenny Chesney song.. it makes me think back on all my summers at the jersey shore and meetin guys lol but it really reminds me though of my ex-boyfriend cuz I dont see how he could ever be anything but mine. When I miss him I put this song on and it makes me cry The actual story behind this song is beautiful. Kenny is such a sweetie, I would be soo flattered if I was the Mary that he is talking about.. I hope she heard this song and got a hold of him
