Wrong Girl
Flames of Summer: A Love Story Unraveled
Lyrics
It was fireworks on the Fourth of July
Recalling a memorable moment on the Fourth of July with fireworks.
Gulf Shores on a Saturday night
Describing a Saturday night in Gulf Shores.
Tennessee was the last thing on my mind
Tennessee was not a priority or significant at that time.
We ditched our friends and we disappeared
Choosing to spend time alone by leaving friends behind.
Walked out to the beach pier, and I
Walking to the beach pier together.
Took your hand right there looking over the edge
Expressing a moment of intimacy, holding hands over the edge.
I didn't care if I was getting in over my head
Not concerned about potential consequences, diving into the relationship.
And we jumped in, didn't know better
Metaphorically jumping into the relationship without full awareness.
Our love came and went with the weather
Describing a transient love that was influenced by external factors.
But you still left a little good in that goodbye
Despite the breakup, acknowledging some positive aspects in the farewell.
You were my best friend 'til the end of that summer
Highlighting the strong bond during the summer.
You'll always be my 23 lover
Referring to the ex-lover as someone special associated with the age of 23.
Cause even though you were the wrong girl,
Acknowledging the ex-lover as the wrong choice in hindsight.
You were the wrong girl at the right time
Emphasizing that the relationship occurred at the right moment despite being with the wrong person.
We were flames and we kept getting higher
Describing the intensity of the relationship as passionate and escalating.
Love drunk and feeding that fire
Metaphorically characterizing the relationship as intoxicating and fueling emotions.
Left me with a third-degree burnout
Expressing the lingering emotional impact of the breakup.
That fall was a hell of a comedown
Describing the aftermath of the intense relationship as challenging.
We jumped in, didn't know better
Reiterating the impulsive nature of the relationship.
Our love came and went with the weather
Describing the fleeting nature of the love influenced by external factors.
But you still left a little good in that goodbye
Acknowledging positive aspects in the farewell despite the breakup.
You were my best friend 'til the end of that summer
Reflecting on the strong friendship during the mentioned summer.
You'll always be my 23 lover
Permanently associating the ex-lover with the age of 23.
Cause even though you were the wrong girl,
Reiterating that the ex-lover was not the right choice in the relationship.
You were the wrong girl at the right time
Emphasizing that despite being the wrong person, the timing of the relationship was right.
I wasn't thinking about going back home
Expressing reluctance or hesitation about returning home.
All I could think about was "what if I don't?"
Contemplating the possibility of not going back home.
I missed my chance when I moved away,
Regretting a missed opportunity when moving away.
I wasn't about to make the same mistake
Determined not to repeat the same mistake.
So we jumped in, didn't know better
Repeating the pattern of impulsive decisions in love.
Our love came and went with the weather
Describing the transient nature of the love influenced by external factors.
But you still left a little good in that goodbye
Finding some positive elements in the goodbye despite the breakup.
You were my best friend 'til the end of that summer
Recalling the strong friendship during that particular summer.
And you'll always be my 23 lover
Permanently associating the ex-lover with the age of 23.
Cause even though you were the wrong girl, you were the wrong girl
Reiterating that the ex-lover was not the right choice in the relationship.
Even though you were the wrong girl, you were the wrong girl at the right time
Stressing that despite being the wrong person, the timing of the relationship was right.
