july

[Verse 1]

Meeting up, like we're seventeen again

Solo cups, but now we put beer in them

Laying back and daring me to

Dive into the deep end

Reaching out, how you been holding up?

'Cause I heard you'd recently broken up

With the boy you grew apart from

So much for your first love

[Pre-Chorus]

And we laugh like little kids

Bad jokes for the hell of it

Mom says come inside, we say "in a minute"

But I wish that I could

[Chorus]

Close my eyes, ignore the sirens

Watch the sun leave the horizon

We won't go unless wе're dying

But we both know that time was nеver kind

And you know in July

Those summer nights belong to you and I

[Verse 2]

Moving out and counting the miles, thisn

Little town takes all of your breath with it

Fatal flaw, I'm sick of it all

But now that I'm leaving, I'm missing

[Pre-Chorus]

All the late nights in

Let our deepest secrets slip

Holding tight, this was nice, wasn't it?

But I wish that I could

[Chorus]

Close my eyes, ignore the sirens

Watch the sun leave the horizon

We won't go unless wе're dying

But we both know that time was nеver kind

And you know in July

Those summer nights belong to you and I

[Bridge]

Hold on a little longer

You're slipping through my fingers

The tide will pull us under

What's left of you will linger

Hold on a little longer

You're slipping through my fingers

The tide will pull us under

What's left of you will linger

But I wish that I could

[Chorus]

Close my eyes, ignore the sirens

Watch the sun leave the horizon

We won't go unless wе're dying

But we both know that time was nеver kind

And you know in July

Those summer nights belong to you and I
