Still Summer (Version 2)

Verse

Your palm prints on the kitchen table

Leftover pizza from last night

You said it's nothing to be kept in a box

Just something that I can't get right

The light at our doorstep is fading slow

Your keys still hanging by the door

I've got a thousand versions of you in my pocket

But this one is the only one I'm looking for

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it's okay to hold on tight

Not just let go like the whole world's moving right past us now

Say that missing someone don't have to mean losing ground

That this feeling's worth more than a few sleepless nights in town

Chorus

It's still summer, don't you dare believe it's over

I'm keeping every second, every heartbeat, forever

Every sunset bleeding red into the floor

Is one more reason why I'll ask for more

Verse 2

Your old baseball cap on my nightstand now

Same cologne on my pillow case again

We said we wouldn't turn this back into a fight song

But the radio keeps playing the same verse twice

The park where our hands first touched is closed down already

The ice cream truck drives by without you anymore

I've got your hoodie in a box behind the shelf

Not a grave, just proof that I still think of you every day for sure

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it's okay to hold on tight

Not just let go like the whole world's moving right past us now

Say that missing someone don't have to mean losing ground

That this feeling's worth more than a few sleepless nights in town

Chorus

It's still summer, don't you dare believe it's over

I'm keeping every second, every heartbeat, forever

Every sunset bleeding red into the floor

Is one more reason why I'll ask for more

Bridge

September came and stole your jacket from the hook

But the static on my phone is just a memory loop

You said goodbye like it was something we could save

Now I'm learning how to say it back, in my own way

So maybe seasons change but this feeling stays forever

Long after the nights turn into gray light years later

I'll still be holding on to what we had left behind

And telling anyone who asks — yeah, it's worth the fight, every time

Chorus

It's still summer, don't you dare believe it's over

I'm keeping every second, every heartbeat, forever

Every sunset bleeding red into the floor

Is one more reason why I'll ask for more
