[Verse 1]
Salt air, and
the rust on yo
ur door
I never needed
anything more
-or
Whispers of "A
re you sure?"
"Never have I
#
ever before"
[Chorus]
But I can see
us lost in the
memory
August slipped
away into a m
oment in time
'Cause it was
never mine
And I can see
us twisted in
bedsheets
August sipped
away like a bo
ttle of wine
'Cause you wer
e never mine
[Verse 2]
Your back
beneath the su
n
Wishin' I coul
d write my nam
e on it
Will you cal
l when you'r
e back at scho
ol?
I remember thi
nkin' I had yo
u
[Chorus]
But I can see
us lost in the
memory
August slipped
away into a m
oment in time
'Cause it was
never mine
And I can see
us twisted in
bedsheets
August sipped
away like a bo
ttle of wine
'Cause you wer
e never mine
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Back when we w
ere still chan
gin' for the b
etter
Wanting was en
#
ough
For me, it was
enough
To live for th
e hope of it a
ll
Canceled plans
just in case
you'd call
And say, "Meet
me behind the
mall"
So much for su
mmer love and
saying "us"
'Cause you wer
en't mine to l
ose
You weren't mi
ne to lose, oh
[Chorus]
But I can see
us lost in the
memory
August slipped
away into a m
oment in time
'Cause it was
never mine
And I can see
us twisted in
bedsheets
August sipped
away like a bo
ttle of wine
'Cause you wer
e never mine
[Outro]
you were
never mine
Never mine
Do you re
member?
Remember when
I pulled up an
d said "Get in
the car"
And then cance
led my plans j
ust in case yo
u'd call?
Back when I wa
s livin' for t
he hope of it
all, for the h
ope of it all
"Meet me behin
d the mall"
And then I can
celed my plans
just in case
you'd call?
Back when I wa
s livin' for t
he hope of it
all, for the h
ope of it all
Remember when
I pulled up an
d said "Get in

And then cance
led my plans j
ust in case yo
u'd call?
Back when I wa
s livin' for t
he hope of it
all (For the h
ope of it all)
Meet me behind
the mall
