Stolen Summer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You took July by hand Left salt on my skin My bike by the fence line Your name in the wind We ran past the arcade Borrowed every night Laughing with our mouths full Of the August light [Pre-Chorus] Now the sky feels different Like it knows your face I keep finding warm spots Where you used to stay [Chorus] Stolen summer, stolen summer You wore it like a crown Stolen summer, stolen summer Now I can’t calm down Stolen summer, stolen summer Still on my tongue Stolen summer, stolen summer We were half grown, half gone [Verse 2] The pool on Maple Street Closed up by fall Your wet shoes by my door Then nothing at all I hear your laugh in traffic See you in the rain But every bright Saturday Feels one step away [Pre-Chorus] Now the sky feels different Like it knows my name I keep finding echoes In the window pane [Chorus] Stolen summer, stolen summer You wore it like a crown Stolen summer, stolen summer Now I can’t calm down Stolen summer, stolen summer Still on my tongue Stolen summer, stolen summer We were half grown, half gone [Bridge] If you ever come back Bring the heat, bring the spark Bring that little trouble That lit up the dark I was fine in pieces Then you called me home Now I chase that season Like a dog on a bone [Final Chorus] Stolen summer, stolen summer You wore it like a crown Stolen summer, stolen summer Now I can’t calm down Stolen summer, stolen summer Still on my tongue Stolen summer, stolen summer We were half grown, half gone Stolen summer, stolen summer Don’t let it fade away Stolen summer, stolen summer I still live that day
