The nights are getting longer
And the days have gone short
And Life comes and goes
Whether you like it or not
The seasons they change
And the winds will soon howl
And there's a fire inside
At the center of it all
You've seen a man rise
Now watch the world fall
You see, summer's just gone
It's taken its last breath
And we seem confused
By the concept of death
Holding your hand
As we walked
And we daydreamed
Coming back home
To an empty house
Summer's just gone
But that does not mean
That all of those memories
Are gone with it too
We laughed and we cried
We watched a friend die
We wondered what our family
Would look like next year
Things didn't always
Go as we planned
But looking back now
It feels meant to be
You see, summer's just gone
It's taken its last breath
And we seem confused
By the concept of death
Holding your hand
As we walked
And we daydreamed
Coming back home
To an empty house
Summer's just gone
But that does not mean
That all of those memories
Are gone with it too
Summer's just gone
But that does not mean
That all of those memories
Are gone with it too
