I love this song. I think he is asking his ex to come back but just not yet because it is still too soon. There is still too much pain ("and I hate that tomorrows too soon") meaning he isn't over the hurt yet, but he misses her and given some time he will be over the hurt and ready to resume the relationship. I can relate to this song since this is exactly what I am going thru. I miss my recent ex gf but with the way things ended and the way she treated me I just cant be a part of her life right now...maybe August, maybe June :p
The part I am not sure about is when he says "I'm building higher than I can see"...does he mean he is building her up in his mind or that he is building himself up to be better upon her return?
I agree with you completely. My former girl and I had to break up recently, not because we weren't getting along, but because the timing of our relationship was bad. I leave for Marine boot camp soon, and she's leaving for college. I'm under stress; she's under stress. We just want this time right now to be spent on our friends and family. When I return from boot camp mid-September, we're gonna spend the week together and see what we want to do.. start it up or let it go.

Now that, I've told everyone my life story, lemme tie...
Now that, I've told everyone my life story, lemme tie that back into the song...
For the desired effect
Would you come back August or June, June
And I hate that tomorrow's too soon
But this collision, came mid bloom
(We're separating for a while. We still love each other, but "tomorrow's too soon," so we're going to hold out a few months. "This collision came mid bloom" to me means that our relationship ended before it fully ran it's course)
Better built to resume
I'll see you August, see you June
I'm building higher than I can see
I want fantasy
("Better built to resume" means we are "made for each other" and should probably resume.. "I'm building higher than I can see" reminds me of what I'm doing now. I'm making all these plans for the future, that I really have no business making. I need to focus. Cross the bridge when I come to it. But for now I dream, and have my fantasies.)
Don't rest with the less
I'm burning to impress
It's deep in the middle of me
I can be fantasy
("Don't rest with the less" is about not settling for someone lesser than this person you had. It's her (him) or no one else. He wants to impress her, and show her that they need to be together.)
