I took up an offer
To run in the water
With all of our clothes on
She said to hold on
Got on my shoulder
She's a little bit older
But I never told her
Afraid she would go
Fell harder and harder
We kept getting closer
Perfect storm washed me away
In my arms losing track of the days
Cold sand standing soaked in the rain
Then you're gone
I'm retracin'
But you keep fading
I'm alone
I keep chasing
Your waves
But the water's cold
Where did summer go
Where did summer go
Told me all of her secrets
Knew all of my weakness
Now I walk the lot
Where we used to stop
Nobody could see us
Waiting for sunrise
And searching for closure
I never knew
The truth
You don't want what you got till it's over
Perfect storm washed me away
In my arms losing track of the days
Cold sand standing soaked in the rain
Then you're gone
I'm retracin'
But you keep fading
I'm alone
I keep chasing
Your waves
But the water's cold
Where did summer go
Where did summer go
No
No I'm not losing hope
No
Where did summer go
Where did summer
I'm retracin'
But you keep fading
I'm alone
I keep chasing
Your waves
But the water's cold
Where did summer go
Where did summer go
Waiting for sunrise
And searching for closure
I never knew
The truth
You don't want what you got till it's over
