June Was Ours (Reprise)

[Verse 1] You drove too fast down Miller’s Road Windows down, hearts in overload Said you’d call me every night But we both knew we wouldn’t try [Pre-Chorus] Still, we danced like July wasn’t near Held on to a moment we’d never get back here [Chorus] June was ours, like the sky was blue Like fireflies lit just for me and you We made promises we couldn’t keep And stayed up just to lose more sleep It was too good to last, too sweet to stay But I still remember it that way Even if the world moved on in hours… For a while, June was ours [Verse 2] Your hands were sunburnt, mine were shy You’d hum old songs and I’d ask why You said love don’t always grow But I watered you like you were home [Pre-Chorus 2] We knew it wouldn’t stretch past the days But still we wrote our names in the lake [Chorus] June was ours, like the sky was blue Like fireflies lit just for me and you We made promises we couldn’t keep And stayed up just to lose more sleep It was too good to last, too sweet to stay But I still remember it that way Even if the world moved on in hours… For a while, June was ours [Bridge] Now you’re a ghost in old flannel and tan lines A chapter I visit from time to time Some loves don’t fade, they just turn to gold And shimmer in stories we never told [Final Chorus] June was ours, and maybe that’s enough We had magic, we had love Even if the calendar turned too fast I’ll always keep those days intact We were young, wild, and full of stars… And for a moment… June was ours
