On The Way Home

The summer's over, this town is closingThey're waving people, out of the oceanWe have the feeling, like we were floatingWe never noticed, where time was goingDo you remember when we first got hereThe days were longer, the nights were hot hereNow, it's September; the engine's startingYou're empty-handed and heavy-heartedBut just remember on the way homeThat you were never meant to feel aloneIt takes a little while, but you'd be fineAnother good time coming down the lineYou'll go back to love that's waitingI'll unpack in a rented roomHow's that life you swear you're hatingGrass is greener: that makes twoBut just remember on the way homeThat you were never meant to feel aloneJust look me up, get back on the busI'll see you next week if you need my trustLife ain't short, but it sure is smallYou get forever but nobody at allLife ain't short, but it sure is smallYou get forever but nobody at allIt don't come often, and it don't stay longBut just remember on the way homeThat you don't ever have to feel aloneJust stay on the run, get off the gridHide yourself out like you know that I didAnd if you might find that you're running is doneA little bit of Heaven never hurt no one
