|
I remember when the days were long, |
|
And the nights when the living room was on the lawn. |
|
Constant quarreling, the childish fits, and our clothes in a pile on the ottoman. |
|
All the slander and double-speak |
|
Were only foolish attempts to show you did not mean |
|
Anything but the blatant proof was your lips touching mine in the photobooth. |
|
|
|
And as the summer's ending, |
|
The cool air will put your hard heart away. |
|
You were so condescending |
|
And this is all that's left |
|
Scraping paper to document. |
|
I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on. |
|
|
|
Cup your mouth to compress the sound, |
|
Skinny dipping with the kids from a nearby town. |
|
And everything that I said was true, |
|
As the flashes blinded us in the photobooth. |
|
Well, I lost track, and then those words were said. |
|
You took the wheel and you steered us into my bed. |
|
Soon we woke and I walked you home, |
|
And it was pretty clear that it was hardly love. |
|
|
|
And as the summer's ending, |
|
The cool air will rush your hard heart away. |
|
You were so condescending. |
|
And this is all that's left |
|
Scraping paper to document. |
|
I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on. |
|
|
|
And as the summer's ending, |
|
The cool air will rush your hard heart away. |
|
You were so condescending, |
|
As the alcohol drained the days. |
|
|
|
And as the summer's ending, |
|
The cool air will rush your hard heart away. |
|
You were so condescending. |
|
And this is all that's left |
|
The empty bottles, spent cigarettes. |
|
So pack a change of clothes, 'cause it's time to move on. |
