Summer s going

[Verse 1: Lazy Female Vocal]
August burns out
Like old film
In attic boxes
Time moves strange

September waits
At bedroom doors
With yellow leaves
And shorter days

[Pre-Chorus: Female vocals with whispered ad-libs]
You were summer heat
Now autumn calls
Every season ends
But memories fall

[Chorus: Male and Female Duet]
Summer's going
Going away
Can't hold onto
Yesterday
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays

[Drum fill]

[Verse 2: Lazy Female vocal]
Pool parties done
Sunscreen fades
From dashboard seats
And concert stages

School bells ring
Somewhere distant
While we pretend
Time stands still

[Pre-Chorus: Female vocals with whispered ad-libs]
You were summer heat
Now autumn calls
Every season ends
But memories fall

[Chorus: Male and Female Duet]
Summer's going
Going away
Can't hold onto
Yesterday
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays

[Guitar solo - melodic, mournful]

[Bridge: Call and Response]
(Female): Hot nights cooling down
(Male): Warm days slip away
(Both): Everything must change
Everything must change

[Final Chorus: Male and Female Duet with harmony]
Summer's going
Going away
Can't hold onto
Yesterday
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays the same
Nothing stays
