Big Ugly Dog - I Wasted the Summer (Thinking About It) Lyrics

We kissed goodbye on Memorial Day
Let's stay in touch you whispered
While we embraced
Then you brushed my cheek and walked away

I guess I should have read between the lines
And realized I'd seen you
For the last time
But you know how they say that love is blind

I wanted to believe
That I misunderstood
I wanted to believe
You weren't gone for good

So I wasted the summer thinking about it
Refusing to give up
Scheming of way to get you back
And not having any luck
Like the itch of a phantom limb you were always on my mind
I wasted the summer thinking about it

All my friends told me it's time to let it go
Get my infatuation
Under control
Tell me something I don't already know

I wish that I could've convinced myself
I'd be better off with anybody else
But I couldn't move on till I was over us

I wanted to believe
Everything was fine
I wanted to believe
You just needed time

So I wasted the summer thinking about it
Refusing to give up
Scheming of way to get you back
And not having any luck
Like the itch of a phantom limb you were always on my mind
I wasted the summer thinking about it
