I think I just recalled a time 
It was not the moon and not the wine 
And though you said you were a friend of mine 
I never felt that way inclined 
Oh the days were hot and the nights were long 
I must have sung a million songs 
But all the words just came out wrong 
On the last day of summer 

I tried to walk the line 
Hoped everything would turn out fine 
But I think I fell in love that time 
On the last day 
And then the rain came down and 
Sparkled the signs of the underground 
And the darkness fell all over town 
On the last day 

I think I dropped my guard that time 
I was flesh and blood and grit and slime 
And I think I may have lost my mind 
On the last day of summer 
I think I fell in love back there 
It was tooth and nail it was bones and hair 
And you'll never never know how much I cared 
On the last day of summer 
 
And though I think I fell that time 
It was not the only fault of mine 
But all I wanted was a sign 
On the last day 
I think you broke my heart that day 
And nothing I could do or say 
Could make the coldness go away 
On the last day 

The winter changes everything 
And the raindrops freeze 
On the signs of the underground 
I wonder will you think of me 
When you look up and see 
There's a full moon over London Town 

I think I was away the day 
When you said you were too smart to play 
And you'd only beat me anyway 
It's funny how I would have stayed 
And you said you were a friend of mine 
But that's not what I had in mind 
I think I fell in love that time 
On the last day of summer 

I tried to walk the line -
Hoped everything would turn out fine
