[Verse 1]
D Gmaj7 Em7
Salt air, and the rust on your door
Em
I never needed anything more
D Gmaj7 Em7
Whispers of "Are you sure?"
Em
"Never have I ever before"
[Chorus]
D
But I can see us lost in the memory
Gmaj7 Em7
August slipped away into a moment in time
A
'Cause it was never mine
D
And I can see us twisted in bedsheets
Gmaj7 Em7
August sipped away like a bottle of wine
A
'Cause you were never mine
[Verse 2]
D Gmaj7 Em7
Your back beneath the sun
Em
Wishin' I could write my name on it

Will you call when you're back at school?

I remember thinkin' I had you
[Chorus]

But I can see us lost in the memory

'Cause it was never mine

'Cause you were never mine

[Bridge]
D Gmaj7
Back when we were still changin' for the better
Em
Wanting was enough

For me, it was enough
D
To live for the hope of it all

Canceled plans just in case you'd call
Em
And say, "Meet me behind the mall"
A
So much for summer love and saying "us"

'Cause you weren't mine to lose
Em A
You weren't mine to lose, oh
[Chorus]

'Cause you were never mine
