Minus} - Summer Dress 2

Copied!edit Lyrics

She’s telling herself
“He won’t be the same as when I left him”
The ring’s still on the shelf
“I know that he’s learned just how to treat me”

“Iodine
Treats me fine
Cleans away
The memories of all the times I wanted to leave”

Blue summer dress
Ribbons in her hair ‘cause that’s his favorite
He said he was wrong
It’s so hard for him to say he’s sorry

“Iodine
Treats mе fine
Cleans away
The mеmories of all the times I wanted to leave”
“He won’t be the same as when I left him”
“I know that he’s learned just how to treat me”

“Iodine
Treats me fine
Cleans away
The memories
And one day, I’ll throw the bottle away.”
