[Chorus]
I'll write you a song, you can play
When I'm gone, away
So, girl be strong, for today
I'll be back before you know
Once again and again and again

[Verse 1]
Dear summer, it's been a long wait
Marathon, I ran this shit at my own pace
Looked at my lady, said "Baby, what's with the long face?"
She said "Nothing, I just hate it when you go away"
You know, it's like we knew this shit would happen
It just so happens this shit is harder than we imagine
Ow! I guess we gotta thank you, summer
Dark days make people show they true colours
I know, sick and tired of my silly games
I see the tears dry on your pretty face
I promise I'm a try be a better man
Not turn around and do the same shit again

[Chorus]
I'll write you a song, you can play
When I'm gone, away
So, girl be strong, for today
I'll be back before you know
Once again and again and again
[Verse 2]
I just hope my girl is ready for the success
We had fun, I know it's a little unfair
Can't have me to herself like she wanted
And that's the reason that she was scared to jump in
Promise me one thing
Even though I do count the good girls in the city on my one hand
Hope this feeling forever last
Don't listen to them bitches that's jealous of what you have
And you, steady looking out these window panes
Thinking 'bout every city where they know my name
Counting down every minute till I get home again
Until then, I'm a..

[Chorus]
I'll write you a song, you can play
When I'm gone, away
So, girl be strong, for today
I'll be back before you know
Once again and again and again

[Verse 3]
Hey, where did time go? It's like a minute is a day
Every second I'm away, every time I hit the stage
With my eyes closed, know you wish it was still the same
Me touching you and kissing you all over your frame
Tryna peep through your blindfold
Step out the room, tryna creep through my iPhone
For win or lose, hear my name, see the lightbulbs
So many jewels in my view, who my mind on?
Tryna get back to who my heart cry for
I know it's nightfall, tryna make sense of where my life was
Baby, I'm never too far
I wrote a song for you wherever you are
[Chorus]
I'll write you a song, you can play
When I'm gone, away
So, girl be strong, for today
I'll be back before you know
Once again and again and again
