Haze of Summer

Did you try to make it out on your own
Or were they words to keep me out in the dark?
These are the things I try hard to forget
I'm still reminded by the scars left in time

Never could I do what you did to me
You tell me that you do, but I know it ain't true
You lit the fuse and watched the fire sweep
Through all the feelings that led you to my heart

I wish for love to be true
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be you
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be true
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be you
But I know I was a fool to just believe

This was not like losin' keys or a phone
You broke into my world and tore it apart
Can't put it down to something we were goin' through
Can't forget your ragin' fire
The ashes of my life

We can't compare each other, one to another
You took all of my light to the edges of your dark
Breathed in the air until it grew so thin
With every lie of pain like I've never known

I wish for love to be true
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be you
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be true
I wish it were much more than just a haze of summer
I wish for love to be you
But I know I was a fool to just believe

I wish for love to be much more than a haze of summer
I wish for love to be much more than a haze of summer
I wish for love to be much more than a haze of summer
I wish for love to be much more than a haze of summer
