Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It’s 100 degrees
With some salt in the breeze
Sun falls with the tide
Fireworks in the sky
Couples hold hands
Hearts drawn in the sand
I should be perfectly fine
[Chorus]
But damn you July
And your shade of blue
For matching the eyes
That left me too soon
Damn your gold sun
For kissing my skin
I thought I was done
Being burned by the memory of him
Damn you July
For showing back up
Damn you July
Now I'm thinking' bout love
[Verse 2]
It was a day like today
When those Tennessee plates
Drove off in the dark
With a piece of my heart
He’s top of my mind
For 31 nights
In the ocean, the roses, the stars
[Chorus]
Damn you July
And your shade of blue
For matching the eyes
That left me too soon
Damn your gold sun
For kissing my skin
I thought I was done
Being burned by the memory of him
Damn you July
For showing back up
Damn you July
Now I’m thinking bout
[Bridge]
Where the hell I'm supposed to go from here?
I know you'd bring him back with you next year
[Chorus]
Damn you July
And your shade of blue
For matching the eyes
That left me too soon
And damn your gold sun
Kissing my skin
I thought I was done
Being burned by the memory of him
Damn you July, oh
[Outro]
Damn you July
Oh Damn you, oh damn you, oh damn you July
Damn you July
