[Verse 1]
What kind of things do you tell yourself?
You see the world like no one else
If your intentions are so good
How come you always feel so misunderstood?
I saw you tryin' to hide behind
I tried to talk to you through my mind
Oh, I was just shootin' at the moon
Well, you know the end will be here soon
[Chorus]
Yeah, I guess I want you to myself
If that don't work, then, baby, well
Ooh, you were just a summer fun
Nothin' ever really lasts too long
Oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
The three words that I say to you
One of them's not and one is true (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And the other one
You only know when you're on the run
I tried to tell you that the chances were good
I tried to see the sun through the woods
Yeah, but when a ghost cries
You feel so haunted, but you don't know why
[Verse 3]
This distant fiending heart of mine
Keeps getting stronger all the time
And the secrets that you keep
The truth will start to creep
[Bridge]
And there's nothing left to know
Don't wanna lose control
[Chorus]
Yeah, I just want it to be true
If it's not, then what do I do (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
It was just a summer dream
Nothing ever really is what it seems
Oh-oh
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
