Summer’s End

John Prine

Summer’s end is around the bend just flyin’ The swimmin’ suits are on the line just dryin’ I’ll meet you there per our conversation I hope I didn’t ruin your whole vacation

Well you never know how far from home you’re feelin’ Until you’ve watched the shadows cross the ceilin’ Well I don’t know, but I can see it snowin’ In your car, the windows are wide open

Just come on home Come on home No you don’t have to be alone Just come on home

Valentines break hearts and minds at random That old Easter egg ain’t got a leg to stand on Well I can see that you can’t win for tryin’ And New Year’s Eve is bound to leave you cryin’

Come on home Come on home No you don’t have to be alone Just come on home

The moon and stars hang out in bars just talkin’ I still love that picture of us walkin’ Just like that old house we thought was haunted Summer’s end came faster than we wanted

Come on home Come on home No you don’t have to be alone Come on home Come on home You don’t have to be alone Just come on home
