Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sweetheart of mine, it's more than a valentine
Be careful, it's my heart
It's not my watch you're holding, it's my heart
It's not the note I sent you that you quickly burned
It's not the book I lent you that you never returned
Remember it's my heart
The heart with which so willingly I part
But please, before you start
Be careful, it's my heart

Lyrics ✨
[Verse 1]
No waves
Dead beach
These birds won't leave me alone
Can't bear
This heat
Might burn every sweater I own
Dreaming of days in your drop top
Crop tops on the floor, ooh oh
Missing the places that we used to make out on the shore
[Chorus]
While everybody's surfing
Baby I've been hurting
Oceans take me under, oh
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
[Verse 2]
A.C. just broke
I left my sandals at yours
Black jeans
Big coat
Take me to December New York
Dreaming of days in a palm tree
House keys on the floor, ooh oh
Thinking of ways that you just don't hold me anymore
[Chorus]
While everybody's surfing
Baby I've been hurting
Oceans take me under, ooh
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
[Bridge]
California knows how to party
You're all around me
I can feel your heartbeat
California knows how to party
You're all around me
I can feel your heartbeat
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer
Baby it's a heartbreak summer

i love this song so much, the production is so good, and how it just repeats that overwhelming sound of (synths? idk) over and over in the chorus kinda captures the overwhelming feeling of drowning when heartbroken, and plus the way she sings, in short phrases at a time, its like shes crying and saying everything in between cries, so much thought put into this song, i love it so much. wish it were way more popular.

hard to call when all the songs are so good, but this might be my favorite one
Rachel Crystal
THIS SONG IS SO GOOD ❤️
Adam
Why this isn't a hugely popular song, I don't know. I feel the same way about another great, overlooked song from late last year—We Stayed Up All Night by Tourist. Both are poised to be hits. Guess it doesn't really matter. The quality speaks for itself.
