Say It Like You Mean It – Fenrik Lane

Verse

Gravel road, bare feet on the hood of your car

Radio static, we don't care where we are

Melting popsicle drips down onto my wrist

Nineteen summers and a July like this

Pre-Chorus

So if this is all we get

Just one gold and honest sec

Then don't hold it back tonight

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, under skies gone amber

Say it like you mean it, hearts too loud to temper

We're young and the light won't stay

So say it like you mean it, say it like you mean it today

Verse

Sunburned shoulders, lake water up to our knees

You're skipping stones while the crickets start their symphonies

Fireflies blinking like they're keeping our time

Nothing's forever but tonight might be mine

Pre-Chorus

So if this is all we get

Just one gold and honest sec

Then don't hold it back tonight

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, under skies gone amber

Say it like you mean it, hearts too loud to temper

We're young and the light won't stay

So say it like you mean it, say it like you mean it today

Bridge

Come September, we'll be scattered like the leaves

But right now you're looking straight at me

No more guessing, no more games we used to play

Just the truth out loud before it fades away

I'm not scared to say it first

Let the whole world hear it burst

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, under skies gone amber

Say it like you mean it, hearts too loud to temper

We're young and the light won't stay

So say it like you mean it, say it like you mean it today
