KIRSTY MACCOLL - Last Day Of Summer lyrics

(kirsty maccoll/mark e. nevin)<br><br>I think I just recalled a time<br>It was not the moon and not the wine<br>And though you said you were a friend of mine<br>I never felt that way inclined<br>Oh the days were hot and the nights were long<br>I must have sung a million songs<br>But all the words just came out wrong<br>On the last day of summer<br><br>I tried to walk the line<br>Hoped everything would turn out fine<br>But I think I fell in love that time<br>On the last day<br>And then the rain came down and<br>Sparkled the signs of the underground<br>And the darkness fell all over town<br>On the last day<br><br>I think I dropped my guard that time<br>I was flesh and blood and grit and slime<br>And I think I may have lost my mind<br>On the last day of summer<br>I think I fell in love back there<br>It was tooth and nail it was bones and hair<br>And you'll never never know how much I cared<br>On the last day of summer<br><br>And though I think I fell that time<br>It was not the only fault of mine<br>But all I wanted was a sign<br>On the last day<br>I think you broke my heart that day<br>And nothing I could do or say<br>Could make the coldness go away<br>On the last day<br><br>The winter changes everything<br>And the raindrops freeze<br>On the signs of the underground<br>I wonder will you think of me<br>When you look up and see<br>There's a full moon over london town<br><br>I think I was away the day<br>When you said you were too smart to play<br>And you'd only beat me anyway<br>It's funny how I would have stayed<br>And you said you were a friend of mine<br>But that's not what I had in mind<br>I think I fell in love that time<br>On the last day of summer<br><br>I tried to walk the line<br>Hoped everything would turn out fine<br>But I lost the reasons and the rhymes<br>On the last day<br>And then the rain came down<br>And sparkled the signs of the underground<br>And the darkness fell all over town<br>On the last day
