[Intro]
I'm not the sum of all my worries
And I'm not the sum of yours
I'm not the summer of 2015
But I can be the summer of now
[Verse]

But I can be the summer of now
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm not the summer of 2015
But I can be the summer of now
[Outro]

To livin' in that hotel you liked
I wanna visit you there
In room 115
