Gone in September Lyrics

I used to be a sweetheart
I used to be alright
I tell myself I love you
But I'm creepin' every night

When I met you at the party
And I told you you were pretty
I was honestly just trying to score
But you made me wait a week
Just to kiss you on the cheek
And I was breakin' my heart, to break yours

I said I loved you in the summer
But will I love you in the fall?
I thought I wasn't like the others
Guess I'm an asshole after all
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone, gone)
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone, gone)

I used to be a good guy
I used to be alright
I tell myself I love you
But I'm creepin' every night (creep creep, creep)

When I met you at the party
And I told you you were pretty
I was honestly just trying to score

I said I loved you in the summer
But will I love you in the fall?
I thought I wasn't like the others
Guess I'm an asshole after all
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone)
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone, gone)
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone, gone)

I'd be lyin' if I didn't feel bad
I've been trying but I just can't get the feel that
When did I become
One of the bad guys?

I said I loved you in the summer (I loved you in the summer)
But will I love you in the fall? (I l-l-love you in the fall)
I thought I wasn't like the others (I wasn't like the others)
Guess I'm an asshole after all
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone)
Come September, I'll be gone (gone, gone, gone)
(Gone, gone, gone)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone (gone, gone)

This song speaks so much about my last girlfriend. Loved her in the summer, but around fall, things were different

Honestly I have not been in a situation close to this but I love the song. It means that he met her and he wasnt really looking for a relationship, but he tried it with her, knowing that it wasnt going to work. He lied to himself and her,saying that he loves her. He's admmitting that he's creeping with other girls. And it hurts him that hes hurting her.
