Love in July
Sally Shapiro Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walked the street of yesterdrill upon with you
I saw your torment even though you'd come here soon
Seconds, Minutes of this counting every pain in me
And all the sunlight missing you suddenly run away

Give me my love in July
Oh oh You make the sunshine
Dry out the tear in my eyes

Don't let me down
I promise to stay around.

I saw the dreaming river show, that from that rain
I see the notes you left for me the final day
Maybe you used to thinking of me right for you, then dont
And our love was just a fool, do you still miss me too?

Give me my love in july
Oh oh, You make the sunshine
Dry out the tears in my eyes
Don't let me down
I promise to stay around

It's almost a year ago, but I still miss you

Do you miss me too?

Give me my love in July
Oh oh, you make the sunshine
Dry out the tears in my eyes
Don't let me down
I'll be around

Give me my love in july
Ohoh, you make the sunshine
Dry out the tears in my eyes
Don't let me down
I'll be around.

I'll be around
Give me my love in July
You make the sunshine
Don't let me go

Dry out the tears in my eyes
I promise to stay around.

I walked the street of yesterdrill upon with you
I remember walking with you on this street in the past

I saw your torment even though you'd come here soon
I noticed that you were troubled even though you had just arrived

Seconds, Minutes of this counting every pain in me
Every second and minute I feel the pain of missing you

And all the sunlight missing you suddenly run away
It feels like all the brightness in my life is gone when I miss you

Give me my love in July
I want our love to be rekindled in the month of July

Oh oh You make the sunshine
You bring so much happiness into my life

Dry out the tear in my eyes
Please make the sadness go away

Don't let me down
Please don't disappoint me

I promise to stay around.
I will be there for you no matter what

I saw the dreaming river show, that from that rain
Watching the river made me realize that we can find beauty even in sadness

I see the notes you left for me the final day
I still have the messages you left me before you left
