lyrics

I will chase the sun to the heir of my west coast love
And take it back because it’s all I have

We can take the weight of the world as we make it ash
And through our fingers we will let it pass

So come on, carry on as the lovers in the lawn
Where such callus grows on our tongues

And we can move away to a place we won’t feel shame
It’s a place where nobody remembers your name

We grow worthless in the summer
But it’s worth it to be your lover
I never knew that giving up could get me to you
Never knew it was true

When your spit is spent on the pennies for the rent
It’s a call or catch twenty-two

Because I would rather know that I’d be coming home
To a woman with a solid backbone

We grow worthless in the summer
But it’s worth it to be your lover
I never knew that giving up could get me to you
Never knew it was true

Everybody’s still making all the same old sounds
You and I, we were hiding in the back of town
Everybody’s still making all the same old frowns
You and I, we were hiding in the back of town

We grow worthless in the summer
But it’s worth it to be your lover
I never knew that giving up could get me to you
Never knew it was true

We grow worthless in the summer
But it’s worth it to be your lover
I never knew that giving up could get me to you
Never knew it was true
I never knew that giving up could get me to you
Never knew it was true
