Summer Ending To A Winter Night
Call the Cops Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We decided today
To walk away from love
Scarlett and gray

Watchin' as the walls return to dust
We gonna sell the outcome
We will always have us in a photograph album
And I don't care about the baggage or the bad times
This is a new beginning, we'll get it right this time

And we're (something) burnin' slow
And she said take all the memories we're never going home
All that we need was a reason to get, a summer ending to a winter night

We decided to stay (we decided to stay)
Even though the road was rough
Bruises they fade (bruises they fade)
Troubles 'cause we not, this tough

We gonna sell the outcome
We will always have us in a photograph album
And I don't care about the baggage or the bad times
This is a new beginning, we'll get it right this time

And we're (something) burnin' slow
And she said take all the memories we're never going home
All that we needed was a reason to get, a summer ending to a winter night

And we're (something) burnin' slow
And she said take all the memories we're never going home
All that we needed was a reason to get, a summer ending to a winter night

We're going uphill from here from now on (a summer ending to a winter night)
We're going uphill from here from now on
(We're going uphill from here from now on)
We're going uphill from here from now on

And we're (something) burnin' slow
And she said take all the memories we're never going home
All that we needed was a reason to get, a summer ending to a winter night

And we're (something) burnin' slow




And she said take all the memories we're never going home
All that we needed was a reason to get, a summer ending to a winter night
