Looking in a window on a rainy day.
Thinking about good things that I just threw away.
Looking in the gutter, watching the trash go flowing by.
Thinking it`s Summer, but there are only clouds in the sky.
When I think about what we wasted, makes me sad,
We never appreciated what we had.
Now I`m standing in a doorway with my overcoat on,
It really feels like Summer`s gone.
So alone.
Summer`s gone.
It should have been a laugh, it should have been fun,
When I think of all the things that we did last Summer.
Now I look back, it seems such a crime,
We couldn`t appreciate it at the time.
Now I`m standing in a doorway, thinking of Summers gone by.
It ought to make me happy, but it just makes me want to cry.
I was riding in the car with my mum and dad,
He was drivin` the car, the kids were drivin` him mad.
Dad looked at us, then he looked at his wife,
He must have wondered where we all came from.
And then mum said, "Dad, you know it won`t last for long,
Before you know it, Summer`s gone."
So alone.
Summer`s gone.
I really blew it all, when I think it through,
I really lost it all when I lost you.
Now I`m standing in a doorway with water in my shoes,
It really feels like, feels like Summers gone.
So alone.
Summer`s gone.
Summer`s gone, so alone.
Summer`s gone.
