The End of the Summer Day

There`s an old pair of sneakers dangling from a wire
And my old rusty engine is in need of some brand new tires
And from my front steps, the last of the weekend vettes goes blasting by
Won`t be nothing so cold as this beach in the winter time

Chorus:
Sun`s been down since you`ve been gone, and I don`t know why or for how long
The same old record played
I`ve been trying to move along, but I keep on singing the same old song
The end of the summer days, end of the summer days

I can still hear you laugh, with your hair blowing back in my car
I can still feel your curves, when we danced in that boardwalk bar
And I can still taste your lips from that one last stolen kiss
By the firelight
Won`t be nothing so cold as this beach in the winter time

(chorus)

(Solo)

One day you just felt a change and slipped away
Maybe it was never meant to be
Now the sound of footsteps makes me hope and pray you`re coming back to me

There`s a warm breeze that`s blowing as the shadows go tumbling by
And it`s picking up sand, and that must be what`s in my eye

(chorus repeats 2x...)

End of the summer days, oooh
