She smiled in a big way

The way a girl like that smiles

When the world is hers

And she held your eyes

Out in the breezeway

Down by the shore

Em C

In the lazy summer

And she pulled you in

And she bit your lip

Em C

And she made you hers

()

And she looked

Deep into you as you lay together

Quiet in the grasp

Em C

Of dusk and summer

G D

But you’ve already lost

Em C

But you’ve already lost

G D

But you’ve already lost

When you only had

Barely enough

To hang on

She combed your hair

And she kissed your teeth

And she made you better

Than you've been before

She told you bad things

You wished you could change

Em C

In the lazy summer

And she told you laughung

Down to her core

So she would not cry

As she lay in your lap

()

And she said

Nobody here can live forever

Quiet in the grasp

Em C

Of dusk and summer

G D

But you’ve already lost

Em C

But you’ve already lost

G D

But you’ve already lost

When you only had

Barely enough

To hang on

()

And she said

E G/B

No one is alone

Asus

The way you are alone

E G/B

And you held her looser

Asus

Than you would've

E G/B

If you ever could have known

Some things tie our lives together

Slender threads

And things to treasure

Days like that should last, and last, and last

G D

But you’ve already lost

Em C

But you’ve already lost

G D

But you’ve already lost

When you only had

Barely enough

Of her to hang on

Hang on
