SUMMER
Jennie Willoughby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night I met you in the garden
And you could tell I had a heavy load
Cause we were only getting started
Uneasy thoughts they change when the wind blows

What if the best things have already come
Stuck in a battle that's already done
A chill's in the air and all I want is to run to you
Back to when it was summer
Back to when you were mine
Back to when it was summer

Our time was short but it was honest
We swore that we would stay outside the shadows
You kept my heart just like a promise
I know you'll come back
But I feel the let down

What if the best things have already come
Stuck in a battle that's already done
A chill's in the air and all I want is to run to you
Back to when it was summer
Back to when you were mine
Back to when it was summer

What if all this time I was waiting for someone
Waiting for your love
What if all this time I was waiting for someone
Waiting for your love
What if all this time I was waiting for someone
Waiting for your love
What if all this time I was waiting for someone
Waiting for your love

What if the best things have already come
Stuck in a battle that's already done
A chill's in the air and all I want is to run to you
Back to when it was summer
Back to when you were mine
Back to when it was summer




Back to when you were mine
Back to when it was summer

Last night I met you in the garden

We were just beginning
