Summer Never Lasts

In the backseat, sippin' on regret

Sunset bleeds but we ain't dead yet

Your lips taste like heartbreak and wine

Every time you leave, I press rewind

Cruisin' down the coast, no plan, no rest

Summer never lasts, but we play pretend

Fallin' for a ghost I can't defend

Bleach-blonde hair, attitude on ten

Pulled me in with a cigarette grin

Said love me now

Don't ask where I've been

Took me the pier

Where the sky turned grey

Laughed in the storm

Then pushed me away

Radio low with her feet on the dash

One hand on my chest

Other flicking the ash

In the backseat, sippin' on regret

Sunset bleeds but we ain't dead yet

Your lips taste like heartbreak and wine

Every time you leave, I press rewind

Cruisin' down the coast, no plan, no rest

Summer never lasts, but we play pretend

Fallin' for a ghost I can't defend

You wore my hoodie like a badge of pain

Took Polaroids in the summer rain

Talked 'bout dreams we could never afford

Now we don't talk, just settle the score

Patchwork sleeve and cherry lip gloss

I still taste it every time I'm lost

Back when love was just a song we knew

Now every chorus just sounds like you

In the backseat, sippin' on regret

Sunset bleeds but we ain't dead yet

Your lips taste like heartbreak and wine

Every time you leave, I press rewind

Cruisin' down the coast, no plan, no rest

Summer never lasts, but we play pretend

Fallin' for a ghost I can't defend
