Salt air, and the rust on your door I never needed anything more
Whispers of "Are you sure?" Never have I ever before
But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine
And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine
'Cause you were never mine
Your back beneath the sun Wishin' I could write my name on it
Will you call when you're back at school? I remember thinkin' I had you
* But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time
'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets
August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine
Back when we were still changin' for the better Wanting was enough For me, it was enough
To live for the hope of it all Canceled plans just in case you'd call
And say "Meet me behind the mall" So much for summer love and saying "Us"
'Cause you weren't mine to lose You weren't mine to lose, oh
'Cause you were never mine Never mine But do you remember
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all "Meet me behind the mall"
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all "Meet me behind the mall"
Remember when I pulled up and said "Get in the car"
And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call
Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all)
For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all, for the hope of it all)
