Meeting up like we're seventeen again Solo cups but now we put beer in 'em 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 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 Close my eyes, ignore the sirens Watch the Sun leave the horizon We won't go unless we're dying But we both know that time was never kind And you know in July Those summer nights belong to you and I Moving out and counting the miles this 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 All the late nights in Let our deepest secrets slip Holding tight this was nice, wasn't it? But I wish that I could Close my eyes, ignore the sirens Watch the Sun leave the horizon We won't go unless we're dying But we both know that time was never kind And you know in July Those summer nights belong to you and I 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 Close my eyes, ignore the sirens Watch the Sun leave the horizon We won't go unless we're dying But we both know that time was never kind And you know in July Those summer nights belong to you and I
