Hey I saw you whisper
Hey I heard you smile
Please try and feel the same for me
It'll maybe be a while
As I can’t help thinking about
All the things we used to do in July
Down by the lake, with all of your friends
Days seemed to fly right by
But you turn around and talk to me
And I don’t like it all that much
So when I finally interrupt you and have your attention
I can tell you it’s as such
It started in fall and you were the same
But now that you're gone, these feelings remain
So why don’t you just come and blow my mind?
And as we finally moved on
After all these years
Of heartache and abstinence
Of confusion and confidence
So when you turn around and talk to me
And I don’t like it all that much
So when I finally interrupt you and have your attention
I can tell you it’s as such
It started in fall and you were the same
But now that you're gone, these feelings remain
So why don’t you just come and blow my mind?
Nothing is sacred and nothing is true
And no one's around except for you
And I can’t wait for you to come and blow my mind
Hey I saw you whisper
Hey I heard you smile
Please try and feel the same for me
It'll maybe be a while
