This is a summer-y pop break up anthem based on the concept of imagining your future self telling you you've wasted your time.
lyrics
Love, in the summer, when it's warm, I’ll be over you.
I’m gone, in the summer, yeah, I’m gone.
‘Cause I don’t like it, when you’re starting.
Guess you’re not the right fit, I’m being honest with you.
Touch under covers but I’m torn,
And you know you want it all, under cover there’s a storm.
And you don’t listen, you don’t wanna hear it.
Get these visions of my future, singing.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I think you know this,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, it could be hopeless,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
This love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
This love’s been making a fool of you,
And it’s not what you want.
This love was never enough, no,
And this love was never ours.
Yeah, this love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
Hundred, a hundred different times, told myself to keep in line,
I told myself a hundred times.
But I don’t care now, I don’t worry ‘bout it,
Wasn’t fair how, I was always doubting.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I don’t deserve it,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I think you’re learning,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
This love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
This love’s been making a fool of you,
And it’s not what you want.
This love was never enough, no,
And this love was never ours.
Yeah, this love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
This love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
This love’s been making a fool of you,
And it’s not what you want.
This love was never enough, no,
And this love was never ours.
Yeah, this love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
This love was never enough for you,
And, baby, now it’s gone.
