Summer Into Fall

Post by Pigfarmer Jr »

Summer Into Fall
Pigfarmer Jr

I remember the look she gave me
The first time she said hello
She was heading to the open mic
And she asked if I would go

Fading into Summer into Fall
Fading into Summer into Fall

Summer came and the heat wave hit us
Hot as the kisses she gave
She was trouble but I didn't care
She was the cool breeze I craved

Fading into Summer into Fall
Fading into Summer into Fall

Ivory lines turned to tan
As the seasons changed
Our innocence faded quickly
Exploring without shame
But infatuation rarely lasts
Each season must dissolve
Fading into Summer into Fall

I didn't like the way she looked at me
When the leaves began to fall
Didn't like the way she gave me her number
And then ignored my calls

Fading into Summer into Fall

Summer Into Fall
miscellaneous owl

Turning towards the heavy footfalls of a future coming down my lane
And the endless tyranny of how days pile up on days
Winter turns to spring and summer turns to fall
I see ambition on the caller ID, but I can't pick up that call

And I don't want to sink or swim
I just want to get out of the water
Hold my breath and I think that I
Could skim the surface like a dragonfly
Or float like dandelion fluff into the empty sky
I don't want to sink or swim

The Joneses are breathing down my neck with my mother in hot pursuit
And my brother's off somewhere ahead in his Allbirds and three-piece suit
I feel the claws come down and tear through anxious skin
It stings just enough to get me sprinting for a while again

And I don't want to sink or swim
I just want to get out of the water
Hold my breath and I think that I
Could skim the surface like a dragonfly
Or float like dandelion fluff into the empty sky
I don't want to sink or swim

And I don't want to sink or swim
I just want to get out of the water
Hold my breath and I think that I
Could skim the surface like a dragonfly
Or float like dandelion fluff into the empty sky
And I don't want to sink or swim
I just want to get out of the water
Hold my breath and I think that I
Could skim the surface like a dragonfly
Or float like dandelion fluff into the empty sky
I don't want to sink or swim

Summer Into Fall
by Johnny Cashpoint

Summer into Fall
Don't mean much at all
To a waterfall,
has the wherewithal.

Autumn into Winter
Leaves an icy splinter
In their hearts. Free thinkers
Get thrown in the river.

Everybody looking for the summer
Worship the summer
'til the dark departs

Winter into Spring -
Joys that warmth can bring.
Rain comes pouring in
Fat as they are thin.

Spring into Summer,
Drowning all the youngsters
Crying for their mother -
sacrificial sinners.

Everybody looking for the summer
Worship the summer
'til the dark departs

CHORUS x 2

Summer into fall
And somehow nothing’s changed at all
Happy endings don’t mean anything to me
When leaves are falling from the trees

Em D A G
A cup of coffee warms me from the chilly morning air
I look around to see you, but you’re still not there

Summer into fall
And these are the darkest days of all
Is lack of consequence a nightmare or a dream?
When nothing is quite what it seems

A cup of coffee warms me from the chilly morning air
I walk around to find you, but you’re still not there

Bm A G D
Life goes on without you
Water flows right through you
A tear into the ocean is just a candle to the sun
You're not fooling anyone

Solo

A cup of coffee warms me from the chilly morning air
I look around to see you, but you’re still not there
Wrapped in a blanket to remind me of your arms
I should be patient, but the future seems so far

Summer into fall
And somehow nothing’s changed at all

Summer Into Fall
The Mellfire Trifecta

Dad does not know where to go
Mom turns him round
And points him up the stairs
They meet again at the closet door
The look in his eyes says “I’m helpless”
And he just stares

Aches and pains at 65
She's ten years removed
From keeping pace with this new life
Sweethearts, content in a partnership
They’d tried for children
But they did not arrive

Good days, bad days, hard to cope
Who the hell deserves this rocky road?
Never mind how he must feel
The shell of a man who’d always shared the load

He said he’d always take care of her
But now some days he’s scared of her
The window’s closing, lights are fading
Summer into fall
Summer into fall
Summer into fall
