Lyrics
You were a dream I hoped would never end
Like a kind of fairytale written way back when
But I knew it couldn’t last
You were moving way too fast for me
It was a summer paradise, we sang the ocean’s tune
Days watching the tide roll in, nights in your room
But not once did I believe
I was playing in your league (at all)
Maybe I couldn’t catch up to you
Or maybe you left me behind
But I can’t seem to get you
Out of my mind
I’ve tried to understand / how it came to be
Broken pieces on the ground was / all that’s left of me
I know I was your summer fling
But I’d have taken anything at all
Maybe I couldn’t catch up to you
Or maybe you left me behind
But I can’t seem to get you
Out of my mind
It wasn’t like you got away
There was no chance you’d ever stay
Like I heard an old man say
If I went back I wouldn’t change one thing
Maybe I couldn’t catch up to you
Or maybe you left me behind
But I can’t seem to get you
Out of my mind
Out of my mind
