Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your sunglasses on my kitchen chair A little piece of July still sitting there I take the long way past the corner store Just to pass the place we don't meet anymore You said, "Don't make it harder than it has to be" Then smiled like you were saving me I nodded like I knew the part But your name still catches in my heart [Pre-Chorus] I can keep it light, I can play it cool I can say I'm fine like I always do But every time the weather turns warm I remember what we were before [Chorus] We were good for a minute, good for a minute Like the whole world stopped when you pulled me in it Now I taste your goodbye in the salt on my skin We were good for a minute, then the summer had to end Good for a minute, still feels like forever I don't want you back, I just miss us together If I see you tonight, I'll pretend I don't care But I'll look for your sunglasses there [Verse 2] Your friends still ask if I'm coming around I say maybe, then I turn the car around There are new names lighting up your phone And I hate that I know when you're alone I found a receipt from that little cafe The one where you stole half my lemonade I keep it folded in my wallet tight Not because I want you, just because it felt right [Pre-Chorus] I can keep it light, I can play it cool I can say I'm fine like I always do But every time the weather turns warm I remember what we were before [Chorus] We were good for a minute, good for a minute Like the whole world stopped when you pulled me in it Now I taste your goodbye in the salt on my skin We were good for a minute, then the summer had to end Good for a minute, still feels like forever I don't want you back, I just miss us together If I see you tonight, I'll pretend I don't care But I'll look for your sunglasses there [Bridge] Maybe some things are beautiful because they leave Maybe letting go is not the same as being free I won't call, I won't ask where you are I'll just let the season change its course [Final Chorus] We were good for a minute, good for a minute And I still thank the night that you pulled me in it Now I taste your goodbye, but it fades in the wind We were good for a minute, and I'm learning how it ends Good for a minute, still feels like forever I don't want you back, I just miss us together If I see you tonight, I'll smile like I care And leave your sunglasses there [Outro] Leave your sunglasses there Let the summer disappear Good for a minute Good for a minute
