[Verse 1] Baltimore on my sleeve Salt on the harbor breeze Your name in my mouth Like a match in rain I got that slow lean now Half in, half out Your hands on my waist And the whole room fades [Pre-Chorus] Say it soft Say it low Don't let go Don't let go I can feel The long night turn Like a wave That won't return [Chorus] Hold me like the summer ends (Hold me like the summer ends) Hold me till the sky gives in (hold me) Baltimore, San Francisco In your arms, I disappear Hold me like the summer ends And keep me here [Verse 2] San Francisco fog On your jacket sleeve We were walking slow Through the thrift-store heat You laughed with your teeth I lost my way Then your breath found mine And the cold backed away [Pre-Chorus] Say it soft Say it low Don't let go Don't let go I can feel The whole world bend When you pull Me back again [Chorus] Hold me like the summer ends (Hold me like the summer ends) Hold me till the sky gives in (hold me) Baltimore, San Francisco In your arms, I disappear Hold me like the summer ends And keep me here [Bridge] Soft speech in the dark You say, stay close Then the rhythm of your heart Hits my bones I go quiet Then I go fast Like a door in the wind When it opens at last [Chorus] Hold me like the summer ends (Hold me like the summer ends) Hold me till the sky gives in (hold me) Baltimore, San Francisco In your arms, I disappear Hold me like the summer ends And keep me here [Outro] (Hold me) (Hold me) Hold me like the summer ends And keep me here
