[English]

Lover of mine, how have you been?

'Cause it's been a while since the summer began

Where did it go? Gone in a flash

Something on my mind keeps on bringing me back

To us, back to us

'Cause I feel like someone else all by myself, all by myself

Pulling on my sweatshirt, looking at your picture

'Cause that broken summer's hanging over me

Drowning in the sunshine, and I spend a long time

Thinking girl, you got the best of me

Hopping on a flight, then make it back to Austin

Finding I get lost in all them Autumn leaves

I just walk around now, stranger in my hometown

Broken summer's hanging over me

Broken summer, broken summer

Broken summer, broken summer

...

Lover of mine, what would it take?

Could I walk the miles off of all our mistakes?

I'm getting tired, too far away

Though I keep on trying, it keeps taking me back

To us, back to us

'Cause I feel like someone else, all by myself, all by myself

Pulling on my sweatshirt, looking at your picture

'Cause that broken summer's hanging over me

Drowning in the sunshine, and I spend a long time

Thinking girl, you got the best of me

Hopping on a flight, then make it back to Austin

Finding I get lost in all them Autumn leaves

I just walk around now, stranger in my hometown

Broken summer's hanging over me

Broken summer, broken summer

Broken summer, broken summer

Broken summer, broken summer

Broken summer, broken summer

...

Back to us

'Cause I'm bringing me back to us

Bringing me back to us

Keeps on bringing me back to us

Back to us

'Cause I'm bringing me back to us

Bringing me back to us

Keeps on bringing me back, back

Broken summer, broken summer

Broken summer, broken summer

...
