[Verse 1:]

Salt air, and the rust on your door

I never needed anything more

Whispers of "Are you sure?"

Never have I ever before

[Chorus:]

But I can see us lost in the memory

August slipped away into a moment in time

'Cause it was never mine

And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets

August slipped away like a bottle of wine

'Cause you were never mine

[Verse 2:]

Your back beneath the sun

Wishin' I could write my name on it

Will you call when you're back at school?

I remember thinkin' I had you

[Chorus:]

But I can see us lost in the memory

August slipped away into a moment in time

'Cause it was never mine

And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets

August slipped away like a bottle of wine

'Cause you were never mine
