lyrics

It's the last day of summer,
I feel the fall creeping in over my shoulder.
As I look over, I see you faintly through a telescope lens
Your a distant memory a story I'll tell my kids to get them to sleep.

I lace up my boots,
Crunch down on all of the leaves in my dreams.
Some satisfying, some let you down but you saw it coming.
You had to take the leap before you walked away and they were swept away.

I'll miss the warm summer sun on my freckled skin and the sweet summer rain we'd get soaked in.
Ill miss the smell of sea coming off your clothes you really know how to make me feel at home.
You had my frown turned upside down.
You were gone when I turned round.

I wrap myself up, under my white sheets count me out of your plans.
And I'll haunt your house I love to scare people who love me.
A moment so bittersweet.

I'll miss the warm summer sun on my freckled skin and the sweet summer rain we'd get soaked in.
Ill miss you playing all your dads old CDs we fell in love listening to Springsteen.
You had my frown tuned upside down.
You were gone when I turned around.

The signs soon become clear.
Cups leading out of my room all the way down the stairs.
A trail I've taken many moons before.
A change in the wind could have me spiraling down the wrong road,
Oh god only knows.

I'll miss the warm summer sun on my freckled skin and the sweet summer rain we'd get soaked in.
I'll miss you playing all your dads old CDs we fell in love listening to Springsteen.
You had my frown turned upside down.
You were gone when I turned around.

mhm so bittersweet,
mhm so bittersweet.
