[Verse 1]
We met after dark and after hours
Your lips were cherry sour
We didn't have to speak
We were breakin' out and startin' over
With nothing to control us
Our futures at our feet

[Pre-Chorus]
But nothing gold can stay, you told me so
Sometimes moving on means letting go
(Stuck in a)

[Chorus]
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no

[Verse 2]
Circling your block for half an hour
You said they cut your power
Now it's too hot to sleep
Serendipity and summer showers
We soak it up like flowers
Growing through the concrete
[Pre-Chorus]
But nothing gold can stay, you told me so
Now all the nights seem just a little darker
Sometimes moving on means letting go
And letting go is only getting harder
(Lost in a)

[Chorus]
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no

[Bridge]
Never know if you don't try
Wasn't our, wasn't our time
Never know if you don't try
Wasn't our, wasn't our time
Even when you're gone, it's like I (Never know if you don't try)
Heard my favorite song and now I (Wasn't our, wasn't our time)
Never have to wonder, no, I (Never know if you don't try)
Never have to wonder (Wasn't our, wasn't our time)
Even when you're gone, it's like I've
Heard my favorite song and now I
Never have to wonder, no, I
Never have to wonder
[Chorus]
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no
Sad summer daze, don't fade away
Don't fade away from me, no
(Can't walk away)
