lyrics

Once upon a time
The story of a hopeless guy
Who never saw the signs
And was afraid to try
Paralyzed and confused why
Then you said goodbye

I was so stupid
You were so perfect
That night in my car in 2002
But I was a loser
Timid and nervous
Thinking back now that I didn't deserve it

You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back

Panic in my mind
Sending chills down my spine
I couldn't believe my eyes
A coward frozen in time
I kept my feelings inside
Now I can't leave you behind

I am so stupid
You were so perfect
Tonight in my car in 2022
I am a loser
Fixated on moments
Still thinking back on what could have been different

You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back
'Cause I'd get a clue
I'd know what to do
I'd kiss you
I'd kiss you

And we'll stay out all night under the stars
Singing lines to all our favorite songs
"You're just jealous 'cause we're young and in love"
And never grow up 'cause the future don't want us

Never grow up 'cause the future don't want us

Mirror down
Lipstick on
It all went wrong

You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back
'Cause I'd get a clue
I'd know what to do
I'd kiss you
I'd kiss you
