Kids in Love Lyrics

I look back to the one and only summertime
When my girl was the envy of every friend of mine
She slept safely in my arms
We were so young and invincible

Closed lips
She was never one to kiss and tell
Those trips in the summer never went so well
Young love was such dumb love
Call it what you want
It was still enough

And it's still out of my reach
And you're still
All of the things that I want in my life
How could I ask you to leave me?
And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes
We wouldn't learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tear us apart?

Our breath smelled of cigarettes and alcohol
We walked down the beach, counting every star
Hearts beat inside out chest
Leaving us gasping for every breath

Her smile with the wind blowing through her hair
Was so contagious in the air
So satisfying
And I'm still smiling

And it's still out of my reach
And you're still
All of the things that I want in my life
How could I ask you to leave me?
And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes
We wouldn't learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tear us apart?

We're falling down
(Can we pick up the pieces?)
We're at an all-time low
(How do we get it back?)
We're falling down
(Can we pick up the pieces?)
We're falling down
(Can we pick up the pieces now?)

And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes
We wouldn't learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tear us

We were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes
We wouldn't learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tear us apart? (x2)

I look back to the one and only summertime when my girl was the envy of every friend of mine she slept safely in my arms we were so young and invincible he felt like he was lucky to have her

closed lips she was never one to kiss and tell those trips in the summer never went so well she never let him "get some," no matter how hard he tried.

young love was such dumb love call it what you want it was still enough he realized now he was naive

and its still out of my reach and you're still all of the things that i want in my life how could i ask you to leave me

he regrets messing things up, he made a mistake (below) that would be their end

and we were just kids in love the summer was full of mistakes we wouldnt learn from

neither have changed

the first kiss stole the breath from my lips why did the last one tear us apart?

it said before that she wasn't one to kiss and tell, maybe after they made love he told everyone and that was their end

our breath smelled of cigarettes and alcohol we walked down the beach counting every star hearts beat inside out chest leaving us gasping for every breath

self explanitory, had a great time

her smile with the wind blowing through her hair was so contagious in the air so satisfying and im still smiling

same thing

were falling down can we pick up the pieces? were at an all time low how do we get it back? were falling down can we pick up the pieces? were falling down can we pick up the pieces now?

he realizes his mistake now and wants to fix things

I had typed all the lyrics to this only to see they were already pending when I went to submit them. Haha.

Anyway, this song seems like it's about a summer romance. It was the first taste of what he could have, and then he lost it and wants it back.

obviously about summer love with teenagers. I like this song I think it's really catchy and cute :D

My Opinion
Cover art for Kids in Love lyrics by Mayday Parade

my sisters friend gave her a cd and this was track 1 and she was like 'this is mayday you know?' and i was like 'omg they sound different'. i had their previous album. we were sitting in the aldi carpark with the doors of the car open and blaring out this song and fell in love with it instantly. i realised i needed to get the new album. hence i got it as a christmas present and i fell in love with it.

this song and still breathing hold a special place in me as they were they first ones i heard off the new album. i always hope i will find this sort of summer romance with someone. someone special.

can't wait for it to happen. the only bummer is that the summer ends.

i think the meaning is quite self explainitory. summer romance that he wants back.

can't explain what a trance this song puts me in. im listening to it right now. cant forget it.

this is about two teenagers falling in love in the summer time. while it wasnt a perfect relationship, it was one he truly loved. after the summer ended, they seperated and didnt keep in touch. now hes thinking of all the memories and wants to be with her again. hes wondering why the first time they kissed it was magical and they were so in love, and the last time they kissed it was a goodbye and they wouldnt see each other again. best song on the album
