[Chorus]
I only love you in the summertime
Baby, when days felt like a dream
You only say it now, don't mean it
Like when you were seventeen
I hate the feeling that you're leaving
'Cause we're having so much fun
I only love you in the summertime
And summertime's nearly done

[Verse 1]
I, baby, when I lie awake
I think of summertime
A time that I don't wanna erase
From my mind
There's things about you I can't shake
Until the sudden realisation
That we hadn't talked in days

[Chorus]
I only love you in the summertime
Baby, when days felt like a dream
You only say it now, don't mean it
Like when you were seventeen
I hate the feeling that you're leaving
'Cause we're having so much fun
I only love you in the summertime
And summertime's nearly done

[Verse 2]
I, know you get scared a bit
But I swear that I'm not doing this
Just for the hell of it
But sometimes
I feel like it's the opposite
When you're walking ahead of me
Acting like we didn't exist

[Bridge]
I don't want you now
I don't want you now

[Chorus]
I only love you in the summertime
Baby, when days felt like a dream
You only say it now, don't mean it
Like when you were seventeen
I hate the feeling that you're leaving
'Cause we're having so much fun
I only love you in the summertime
And summertime's nearly done
