I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout you lately
Reminiscin’, goin’ crazy
Miss the way your kiss would keep me up
Ay, wish that you were here tonight
Drinkin’ vodka soda, extra limes
And we could just get back to bein’ us
‘Cause I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again
Like we were last summer
Want you again, you again, you again
To be stealin’ my covers
All tangled in each other eyes, still playin’ back in my head
I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again, yeah
Do you ever think about
The days we couldn’t live without each other?
Where the hell did we go wrong?
Ay, how’d we go from that to this?
How’d we let a good thing slip?
Do we really have to go move on?
I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again
Like we were last summer
Want you again, you again, you again
To be stealin’ my covers
All tangled in each other eyes, still playin’ back in my head
I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again, yeah (Hey, hey)
Ayo, cool again
I really wish that I was kickin’ back with you again
At top the penthouse somewhere checkin’ out the view again
‘Cause every time we do it, it’s like new again, it feels like new again
Do I need you so?
I’m missin’ all that body
Oh, the head to toe
Can’t somebody, anybody, tell me? Oh
I just need to ask ’em, “Where the love did go?”
I just wanna be (Cool again, cool again, cool again, cool again)
‘Cause I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again
(Cool again, cool again, hey)
Like we were last summer
Want you again, you again, you again (You again)
To be stealin’ my covers (Hey)
All tangled in each other eyes, (Hey) still playin’ back in my head
I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again, yeah
(Hell, I just wanna be cool again, cool again, cool again)
Let’s go (Cool again, cool again, cool again)
Y’all know
That I just wanna be (Cool again, cool again) cool again (Cool again)
Last summer with you (Cool again, cool again) cool again
Cool again
(Cool again, cool again) Cool again, yeah
