Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime Sadness
I just wanted you to know,
That baby you're the best

When I first saw you blowing in that summertime breeze,
Your golden hue, mixed with pinks and blues.
The sand on the beach, almost up to my knees,
I fell in love for the very first time.

Late August over my head,
I had thoughts wishing that chivalry wasn't dead,
And that a moment would sweep me off my feet.
I tilted my head towards you,
Felt your radiance have a beat,
And my heart beated with you.

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime Sadness
I just wanted you to know,
That baby you're the best

The best is yet to come,
When you become undone,
And you part ways with me.
You're counterpart is high,
Pulling and pushing the tides,
It's just a beautiful symphony.

I'm still standing here,
With my red dress on tonight,
And I'm staring at your counterparts pale light.
Wishing for you to be here too.
But I know the world isnt ready,
For an eclipse of emotions,
And so I turn my head back
And here the steady wave motions.

Kiss me hard before you go
Summertime Sadness
I just wanted you to know,
That baby you're the best

I know I must leave you,
For my time is near,
To leave this beach and disappear.
Summertime sadness,
What might I do?
When everything glows with the light of you?
So kiss me hard before you go,
Summertime sadness.
I just wanted you to know,
That baby you're the best.
