Life with you was like the summer
Easy as an afternoon
Laying on a blanket by a stream
With shoes kicked off and pants rolled up
Nights fell slowly, softy upon us
I miss those times, ever since you left me
The sun keeps getting lower in the sky
Lately it's been setting around five
And I'm remembering when
You were with me back then
It didn't get dark til eight
But it gets late early these days
Winter makes the trees look lonely
Shadows they grow long
The chill seems to settle in my bones
Like the summer you're long gone
Seasons change but I can't move on
Everyday I feel more alone
The sun keeps getting lower in the sky
Lately it's been setting around five
And I'm remembering when
You were with me back then
It didn't get dark til eight
But it gets late early these days
Nights go by in slow motion
All I do is pray for sleep
I'm tired of wrestling these dark emotions
Hanging like a black cloud over me
The sun keeps getting lower in the sky
Lately it's been setting around five
And I'm remembering when
You were with me back then
It didn't get dark til eight
But it gets late early these days
It gets late early these days
It gets late early these days
It gets late early these days
