[Verse 1]
Got me feeling like the elephant
In every room I'm walking into, yeah
We started out innocent
Till I got pulled right into your issue, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of sending hugs and kisses, oh no
I'm tired of all your burning bridges

[Chorus]
It's like, damn
Why you gonna be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, yeah yeah
I was really rooting for ya, eh yeah
Why you gotta be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, oh no
We were really rooting for ya, yeah-eh, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Oh

[Verse 2]
Now I see you're having so much fun with everyone
You had so much fun making fun of
Did you go and bump your head?
Did you forget where you came from?

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of sending my well wishes
I'm tired of all these burning bridges

[Chorus]
It's like, damn
Why you gonna be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, yeah yeah
I was really rooting for ya, eh yeah
It's like, man
Why you gonna be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, oh no
We were really rooting for ya, yeah, yeah-eh

[Bridge]
I'm not even brokenhearted
I'm just a little disappointed
What a shame, we coulda had a good thing
You let go of a good thing

[Chorus]
It's like, damn
Why you gonna be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, oh no
We was really rooting for ya
Oh, I was really rooting for ya
Why you gotta be so cold in the summertime, summertime?
I was really rooting for ya, yeah yeah
We were really rooting for ya, yeah yeah

[Outro]
It's like damn
In the summertime
I was really, I was really rooting for ya
