Last Of The Summer Skies

from Tui by James Constable

lyrics

Walking along the street with you, I notice something’s changed
I’m noticing the seasons have slowly begun to change
The grass is green, the sky is clear, but the leaves are going gold
I hope that they will not fall down before we grow old

Though these are the last of the summer skies
Please take my hand
And kiss me in the street, in the dark of night
Though it won’t be the last time

I met you seven months ago at a fire burning bright
You came to me to say “hello”, and then I saw the light
I rang to ask, and you said “YES”, our life as two began
But as the sun begins to set I’ll say to you again

Though these are the last of the summer skies
Please take my hand
And kiss me in the street, in the dark of night
Though it won’t be the last time

I know that this sounds soppy, and you’ve heard this all before
The fire of our life, it’s just not present anymore
Don’t get me wrong, I STILL LOVE YOU, it’s only just begun
So wipe this tear off of my cheek, for we are still as one

Though these are the last of the summer skies
Please take my hand
And kiss me in the street, in the dark of night
Though it won’t be the last time
