[Verse 1] Found your coat Beach pass in the pocket Tiny grain of sand In the stitching of the collar Half-priced postcards Folded in the zipper You wrote “don’t forget me” But the stamp never landed [Chorus] Leftover sunscreen in December Smell it and I almost remember Sweaty hands Laughing in a heatwave Now I’m shivering at the bus bay Leftover sunscreen in December Ghost of a tan on my shoulder You’re long gone But this little blue bottle Keeps saying your name over and over (over) [Verse 2] Scarf pulled tight But my nose hits summer That coconut chemical Hits harder than your number I could toss it With the cracked old lighters Instead I shake it once Like you might answer [Chorus] Leftover sunscreen in December Smell it and I almost remember Sweaty hands Laughing in a heatwave Now I’m shivering at the bus bay Leftover sunscreen in December Ghost of a tan on my shoulder You’re long gone But this little blue bottle Keeps saying your name over and over (over) [Bridge] Funny what stays When people don’t Stray drops in a cap Hold more than they should If I use what’s left Will you fade too? Or will next winter Still smell like you (oh) [Chorus] Leftover sunscreen in December Smell it and I almost remember Sweaty hands Laughing in a heatwave Now I’m shivering at the bus bay Leftover sunscreen in December Ghost of a tan on my shoulder You’re long gone But this little blue bottle Keeps saying your name over and over (over, over)
