The End of July Lyrics
Drove all night I was home,
At the end of July.
To find your face gone,
Sheets gone, bare walls, white.
And I guess that I understand this,
That you had to leave.
But this is nothing
Like what you promised me.
See, I don't wanna know what you did the months I was away.
Like seeing the first sunrise,
Drunk in Milwaukee,
Do I have any more ash on my arms to explain?
Took off all of my clothes
And wandered the rooms.
I tried to remember
Every crack in the paint
Instead of remembering you.
And I took a shower
And found your soap.
I scrubbed you off for hours,
Then gave up hope.
See, I don't wanna know what you did the months I was away.
Like seeing the first sunrise,
Drunk in Milwaukee,
Do I have any more ash on my arms to explain?
But at the end of July all my plans changed.
Cuz, baby, I thought, a few months apart might keep us together.
But at the end of July all my plans changed.
And I've never been good at distant,
But I'm getting better.
At the end of July.
To find your face gone,
Sheets gone, bare walls, white.
That you had to leave.
But this is nothing
Like what you promised me.
Like seeing the first sunrise,
Drunk in Milwaukee,
Do I have any more ash on my arms to explain?
And wandered the rooms.
I tried to remember
Every crack in the paint
Instead of remembering you.
And found your soap.
I scrubbed you off for hours,
Then gave up hope.
Like seeing the first sunrise,
Drunk in Milwaukee,
Do I have any more ash on my arms to explain?
Cuz, baby, I thought, a few months apart might keep us together.
And I've never been good at distant,
But I'm getting better.
