End Of The Summer - Dar Williams[00:00:01]
The summer ends and we wonder where we are[00:00:10]
And there you go my friends[00:00:14]
With your boxes in your car[00:00:17]
And you both look so young[00:00:20]
And last night was hard you said[00:00:23]
You packed up every room[00:00:26]
And then you cried and went to bed[00:00:28]
But today you closed the door and said[00:00:32]
We have to get a move on[00:00:35]
It's just that time of year when we push ourselves ahead[00:00:38]
We push ourselves ahead[00:00:42]
And it was cloudy in the morning[00:00:47]
And it rained as you drove away[00:00:50]
And the same things looked different[00:00:53]
It's the end of the summer[00:00:55]
It's the end of the summer[00:00:57]
When you move to another place[00:01:00]
And I feel like the neighbor's girl[00:01:05]
Who will never be the same[00:01:07]
She walked alone all spring[00:01:10]
She had a boyfriend when the summer came[00:01:12]
And he gave her flowers in a lightning storm[00:01:17]
They disappeared at night in green fields of silver corn[00:01:22]
And sometime in July she just forgot that he was leaving[00:01:28]
So when the fields were dying[00:01:34]
She held on to his sleeves[00:01:36]
She held on to his sleeves[00:01:38]
And she doesn't want to let go[00:01:44]
Cause she won't know what she's up against[00:01:46]
The classrooms and the smart girls[00:01:49]
It's the end of the summer[00:01:51]
It's the end of the summer[00:01:54]
When you hang your flowers up to dry[00:01:57]
And I had a dream it blows the autumn through my head[00:02:11]
It felt like the first day of school[00:02:16]
But I was going to the moon instead[00:02:19]
And I walked down the hall[00:02:23]
With the notebooks they got for me[00:02:25]
My dad led me through the house[00:02:27]
My mom drank instant coffee[00:02:30]
And I knew that I would crash[00:02:34]
But I didn't want to tell them[00:02:36]
There are just some moments when your family makes sense[00:02:39]
They just make sense[00:02:45]
So I raised up my arms[00:02:49]
And my mother put the sweater on[00:02:52]
We walked out on the dark and frozen grass[00:02:55]
The end of the summer[00:02:58]
It's the end of the summer[00:03:00]
When you send your children to the moon[00:03:03]
The summer ends and we wonder who we are[00:03:08]
And there you go my friends[00:03:13]
With your boxes in your car[00:03:15]
And today I passed the high school the river the maple tree[00:03:19]
I passed the farms that made it[00:03:24]
Through the last days of the century[00:03:26]
And I knew that I was going to learn again[00:03:31]
Again in this less hazy light[00:03:35]
I saw the fields beyond the fields[00:03:37]
The fields beyond the fields[00:03:40]
And the colors are much brighter now[00:03:45]
It's like they really want to tell the truth[00:03:48]
We give our testimony to the end of the summer[00:03:51]
It's the end of the summer[00:03:56]
You can spin the light to gold[00:03:58]
