​we fell in love in october Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Smoking cigarettes on the roof
You look so pretty and I love this view

[Pre-Chorus]
We fell in love in October
That's why, I love fall
Looking at the stars
Admiring from afar

[Chorus]
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my world
My world, my world, my world
You will be my girl


[Verse 2]
Smoking cigarettes on the roof
You look so pretty and I love this view
Don't bother looking down
We're not going that way
At least I know, I am here to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
We fell in love in October
That's why, I love fall
Looking at the stars
Admiring from afar
(My girl, my girl, my girl)
[Chorus]
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl
You will be my world
My world, my world, my world
You will be my girl

What did ​girl in red say about "​we fell in love in october"?
Genius Answer

I wrote in 2015, and it’s basically the first song I wrote about a girl in the first relationship I had with a girl. I had broken up with my boyfriend and I’d been in this relationship with this girl and it’s just me declaring my love for this girl. Just screaming, “My girl, my girl!” twenty times in the chorus and sort of just owning it because I struggled a long time accepting it, and there was so much shit going on with this girl, there was just so much drama. It’s about when things have kind of settled and I’m like Fuck yeah, this is my girl. And you will be my girl. I don’t know, I love this girl.
