[Verse 1]
When I came to get you from your folk's
You said all I want to do is cry
I don't have time for any of your jokes
You said all I want to do is cry
They treat me like I'm made of gold
All I want to do is cry
All I want to do is cry

[Chorus]
I wish I could make you love me
I wish I could make you a summer in July
A summer in July
A summer in July
Summer in July

We were driving home in my car
You said nothing makes me feel no more
So you opened up the passenger door
And said all I want to do is die
You treat me like I'm six years old
All I want to do is die
All I want to do is die

[Chorus]
I wish I could make you love me
I wish I could make you want me
I wish a summer in July
A summer in July
Summer in July
[Bridge]
I should have known
We weren't just kids we were lovers
And now that you're gone
All I seem to do
Remember your face (summer, summer summer)
I call out your name (summer, summer summer)
Every night
I wish

I miss that summer in July

[Chorus]
I wish I could make you love me
I wish I could make you a summer in July
A summer in July
A summer in July

That summer in July
