Letting Go Summer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Remember that summer, when I first saw you? I tried to look away, but you pulled me through. You kept talking to me, I kept my distance. Then you flashed that card trick, and I lost resistance. [Pre-Chorus] You said my name like it already meant something. Sweet hands, careful eyes, and my heart kept jumping. I knew your kind of fire, I knew the ending. Still I leaned in closer, still I kept pretending. [Chorus] It felt so real (like a movie scene) It felt so real (like a movie scene) Laughing in the heat, then you let me see the kind of love that had to set me free. [Verse 2] Then I found out fast what you really wanted. A little bit of me, then the night undid us. You were all tenderness, soft like rain in July. But I knew you never wanted to stay a while. [Pre-Chorus] You said my name like it already meant something. Sweet hands, careful eyes, and my heart kept jumping. I knew your kind of fire, I knew the ending. Still I leaned in closer, still I kept pretending. [Chorus] It felt so real (like a movie scene) It felt so real (like a movie scene) Laughing in the heat, then you let me see the kind of love that had to set me free. [Bridge] Maybe that was love, maybe just a moment. Either way you touched the part I’d kept frozen. I don’t hate the memory, I don’t chase the spark. Some summers are a doorway, some summers leave a mark. [Final Chorus] It felt so real (like a movie scene) It felt so real (like a movie scene) Laughing in the heat, then you let me see the kind of love that had to set me free. It felt so real (like a movie scene) It felt so real (and I let it be)
