Not Your Summer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wanna go, I wanna leave
I need some time away from me
And this is not an apology
Apologies aren't necessary
If this is it, let this be it
I need some time to talk it out
Don't be surprised, don't be alarmed
If first impressions start to let you down
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your year
Maybe it's not as easy for you to walk away and disappear
If feels like your ears are burning
Did someone really call your name?
Or maybe you were just daydreaming
Of somebody who can make your day
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your summer
I'm the edge, I'm on the break
It took a while to walk away
Don't you forget, don't you be naive
Confusing love with a sunny day
It took a while to walk away
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your year
Maybe it's not as easy for you to walk away and disappear
It feels like your ears are burning
Did someone really call your name?
Or maybe you were just daydreaming
Of somebody who can make your day
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your summer
I wanna go, I wanna leave
I need some time away from me
And this is not an apology
Apologies aren't necessary
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your year
Maybe it's not as easy for you to walk away and disappear
It feels like your ears are burning
Did someone really call your name?
Or maybe you were just daydreaming
Of somebody who can make your day
Somebody who can make your day
Maybe it's not your summer
Maybe it's not your summer
