Verse 1

I look back to the one

 and only summer time

 And my girl was the envy

 of every friends of mine

 She slept safely in my arms

We were so young and invincible

Closed lips, she was

never one to kiss and tell

Those trips in the

summer never went so well

 Young love is such dumb love

Call it what you want

 it was still enough

Refrain

 And still out of my reach

 And still all of the things

 That I want in my life

How could I ask you to leave me?

Chorus 1

 And we were just kids in love

 The summer was full of

 mistakes we wouldn't learn from

The first kiss stole

 the breath from my lips

Why did the last one tear us apart?

Interlude

D--

Verse 2

Our breath smelled of

cigarettes and alcohol

 We'd walk down the beach

 counting every star

 Our hearts beat inside our chest

Leaving us gasping for every breath

Her smile with the wind

 blowing through her hair

 Was so contagious in the air

So satisfying and I'm still smiling

Refrain

 And still out of my reach

 And still all of the things

 That I want in my life

How could I ask you to leave me?

 And we were just kids in love

 The summer was full of

 mistakes we wouldn't learn from

The first kiss stole

 the breath from my lips

Why did the last one tear us apart?

Interlude

---- x2

Bridge

 We're falling down can

 we pick up the pieces?

 We're at an all time low

 how do we get it back?

 We're falling down can

 we pick up the pieces?

Guitar solo

 We're falling down can

 we pick up the pieces now?

Chorus 2

 And we were just kids in love

 The summer was full of

 mistakes we wouldn't learn from

The first kiss stole

 the breath from my lips

Why did the last one tear us

(Repeat Chorus 1 twice)
