I sent you a note on a postcard
My first day
You mailed me back a couple of songs you wrote
Hidden in a mixtape
It started with so far away
And every time the chorus would play
Peals of laughter
See you after
We get out this year
Summer’s coming
And she’s humming
Softly in my ear
We ended up at the same party
By mistake
I found myself missing the memories
We’d never make
Well maybe if I wasn’t so shy
And terrible at saying goodbye
Peals of laughter
See you after
We get out this year
Summer’s coming
And she’s humming
Softly in my ear
