Verse 1] Packed the denim jacket, left the winter coat behind Funny how a number changes what you're trying to find Counting up the mileage on a lease that’s running out Standing in the shallows, looking back at what we doubt We used to talk like April meant this could last Like we’d never run out of road or gas [Pre-Chorus] The shadows stretch out first And the ice in the glass goes quick [Chorus] The calendar keeps saying what we don’t want to hear We burned through twenty of them getting here And the math is heavy on the chest God, I think we've only got five good summers left Yeah, five good summers left [Verse 2] Five more times with salt drying on my skin Before the knees complain and the cold nights win Drive the coast with the windows down, not saying much Before this loud little town just slips our touch It’s not a tragedy, just the page turning slow Freedom starts to look like what you can’t control [Chorus] The calendar keeps saying what we don’t want to hear We burned through twenty of them getting here And the math is heavy on the chest God, I think we've only got five good summers left Yeah, five good summers left [Bridge] [Tempo slows slightly, building tension] Pop the good wine. Don’t save it for some cleaner day Stop apologizing for the way you want to stay If the clock’s still moving, let’s do something with the sound I want sun on my shoulders, I want one more round No more waiting on a sign [Guitar Solo] [Melodic, swelling indie-guitar riff] [Chorus] [Explosive, full band energy] The calendar keeps saying what we don’t want to hear We burned through twenty of them getting here And the math is heavy on the chest God, I think we've only got five good summers left [Outro] Only five... Let the warm wind stay Don’t let a single evening slip away Just five good summers...
