I Know What You Did Last Summer Lyrics

[Shawn & Camila:]
Ahhh
Hey-ey
Ahhh - Ahhh
Ahh
Hey-ey
Ahhh - Ahhh

[Camila:]
He knows
Dirty secrets that I keep
Does he know it's killing me?
He knows, he knows
D-d-does he know
Another's hand have touched my skin
I won't tell him...

    I can really relate to this song a lot.Yesterday I found out that my boyfriend has been cheating on me with another girl.I even saw text messages of the two texting each other.I feel like like I am going to explode.Honestly,I do not know what love is anymore.

    The girl cheated on the guy last Summer, but the girl feels really bad about it, but won't tell him, yet he knows. They know their relationship is ending, yet nether can seem to let go. If you listen to the song, when Shawn is asking where she's been, etc, Camila is trying to just say "Hold me close" this doesn't have to end, don't say anything, don't talk, don't try to fight with me, "Hold me close."
    Throughout the whole song, Shawn is asking where Camila has been, Camila is trying to avoid it. "I know what you did last Summer,"

    I know how you feel about one guy who has cheated on you with another girl it’s hard to hold on the past what you’ve have done and the question it’s right because man always becomes a jerk who has wronged the girls man cheated on girls girls cheated on man every time just stop doing it all over again if you do that again you will be arrested for cheating on the girls that police will take to jail be a changed man and do the right thing get your girl back

    I only learn myself that I don't need one. Boys are a complete waste of my time. Even if I like a not real dude. The real boys are just eh.

    I understand this song, but I don't have those kind of drama's. I got over those by learning myself that I don't need anyone else, it's very harsh to love someone who is not real. But, I am fine not to be in these kind of situations. I don't need one, because I have myself and the not real dude. I don't like real boys. They can be sometimes a jerk.

    It’s about a girl cheating on a guy and they don’t come clean and they don’t wanna let go of each other.

    The girl cheated on the guy and he knows that she cheated but later in the song she says she doesn’t mean it and a part of the guy wants to believe it and another part of him is like no she cheated and she did mean it.but she really didn’t and then they know that it is their time to breakup but won’t allow themselves to believe it.then they still stay together causing a wired relationship that they should end and become friends again and see where it takes them if they get back together great if they move on great.they just need a fresh start.

    I think this about a couple who is in a toxic relationship.

    Cabello described "I Know What You Did Last Summer" as a "conversation between two people in a relationship where it's dying, but nobody wants to admit that it's dying." (wikipedia)

    Are you also in highschool like your bf who cheated on you? I guess you are still too young for love, mature first and you will love the right person at the right time. You will know love when you are more mature.
    For the person who commented today or HOPE4BEST at 15:34 pm. You are still too young for true love. Like is different from love. Let go of the guy who cheated on you and let go of the guy you are with right now. If you are not ready to open and trust at this moment, better not to think of being with someone because you are confused right now. Have a relationship when you are ready and when you are ready to open up and trust again. - CONFIDENTIAL 11/25/17

    This is for the person who posted on October 11th at 10:55. I know exactly how you feel. I'm a senior in high school. I was dating this guy for just over a year, and I found out that he had cheated on me with his co worker. Now I'm with someone else and he wants me back. Honestly I don't know what to do. I really like this guy- might even love him, but I still love my ex too, which just complicates everything so much more. And just the other day my ex had told me that he had got me a ring- like an engagement one. It's so complicated. Like do I stay with the guy I'm with even though he's gonna be leaving me soon to join the Marines, or do I go back out with my ex, and hope that whatever broke in our relationship could be fixed? Honestly though...I really don't know if I can open up and ever trust anybody like that again.

    I can really relate to this song because i had just found out that my boyfriend has been cheating on me with another girl. She is a freshman.I feel like i will never be able to love anyone ever again. I honestly dont know what love is anymore.

    This song is about the elephant in the room. He knows she has cheated but she will not come clean about it. This leads to a strain on the relationship.

    It's about a love that's falling apart. The girl has cheated on the guy. They both know that it's practically over but won't admit it to themselves because they're trying to hold onto the past. The guy knows what she did, hence the 'I know what you did last summer'. They both can't seem to let each other go or hold each other close
