Gatsby's American Dream (Summer)

Summer came so suddenly
And tore a part of me
And I can't ever get it back
Summer, guilty and so desperately
I came to you lovingly
Hoping I could get it all back
But you won't ever let go, will you

This past summer was heartbreak
A mind numbing bore
Was hanging with the wrong crowd
Laughing on the floor
Was whatever I wanted it to be and more
But now it's over, all over, yeah

Summer came so suddenly
And tore a part of me
And I can't ever get it back
Summer, guilty and so desperately
I came to you lovingly
Hoping I could get it all back
But you won't ever let go, will you, baby

This last summer was distance
The ring that you wore
Was classic movie comas
Behind bedroom doors
Was whatever I wanted it to be and more
But now it's over, all over, yeah

This past summer was hoping (hoping)
For an end to the war
Was dancing in the rain while
You left me by the shore
This last summer was a letdown (letdown)
And wanting much more
Was jumping off the roof with
All we had in store
Was whatever I wanted it (wanted it) to be and more
But now it's over, all over, yeah
