Trip'yon Post - After the Summer Lyrics

After the summer
I thought I was over you
Hit the ground running
I ran right into you again, but
I'm moving past you
My friends do not believe it
They don't want to
When you leave
No one misses you like I do
They don't know why I'm giving up
It's cause I have to

Over the summer
I thought you were out of my way
And then when I saw you
I knew that it'd only bring me pain
So I lied to myself, pretended you meant nothing
Put your name on the shelf, passed you by and kept on moving
Tried convincing myself, that I didn't really need you
But my life just caught up, and now I'm barely breathing

And suddenly
You're right there
My mind is going off like
Why should I care
But I can't stop feeling
Things that I shouldn't be feeling
Cause I told myself it's over
But it's not over

After the summer
I thought I was over you
Hit the ground running
I ran right into you again, but
I'm moving past you
My friends will not believe it
They don't want to
When you leave
No one misses you like I do
They don't know why I'm giving up
It's cause I have to

You're as pretty as you were last year
Not sure why it would be different
When you around, I start to feel that fear
Like, will I mess up, am I finished
And you pull up like that
Just show up, like that
I ain't ready for that
It just freaks me out
I try to pass you by
I still catch your eye
Girl, it freaks me out
And I ain't gonna lie to your face
Try to hide, try to fake
Keep inside, keep it safe
No, no
My feelings coming right back
How would you fight that
I just can't fight that 'cuz

After the summer
I thought I was over you
Hit the ground running
I ran right into you again, but
I'm moving past you
My friends will not believe it
They don't want to
When you leave
No one misses you like I do
They don't know why I'm giving up
It's cause I have to
