Summers Almost Gone
Morning found us calmly unaware
Noon burn gold into our hair At night, we swim the laughin' sea When summer's gone Where will we be The doors |

Helter skelter in a summer swelter.
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter, Eight miles high and falling fast. It landed foul on the grass. The players tried for a forward pass, With the jester on the sidelines in a cast. |

Summer's Growing Old (Leo Kottke)
Summer's growing old, her smile is not so bold Summer's growing old Children play the same old way, all the day long Summer's growing old, her smile is not so bold Summer's growing old Summer's growing old, her smile is not so bold Summer's growing old Children play the same old way, all the way home |

never actually knew the name of the group who sang it.
Nobody on the road Nobody on the beach I feel it in the air The summer’s out of reach Empty lake, empty streets The sun goes down alone I’m drivin’ by your house Though I know you’re not at home But I can see you- Your brown skin shinin’ in the sun You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I never will forget those nights I wonder if it was a dream Remember how you made me crazy? Remember how I made you scream Now I don’t understand what happened to our love But babe, I’m gonna get you back I’m gonna show you what I’m made of I can see you- Your brown skin shinin’ in the sun I see you walkin’ real slow and you’re smilin’ at everyone I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone Out on the road today, I saw a black flag sticker on a cadillac A little voice inside my head said, don’t look back. you can never look back. I thought I knew what love was What did I know? Those days are gone forever I should just let them go but- I can see you- Your brown skin shinin’ in the sun You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone I can see you- Your brown skin shinin’ in the sun You got that hair slicked back and those wayfarers on, baby I can tell you my love for you will still be strong After the boys of summer have gone Ataris |

all these tunes remind me of the beach boys' caroline no. not about summer's end explicitly but might as well be considering the band, the mournful theme of fleeting youth, and the surf bass buried in the mix. Where did your long hair go? Where is the girl I used to know? How could you lose that happy glow? Oh, Caroline, no... Who took that look away? I remember how you used to say You'd never change, but that's not true. Oh, Caroline, you break my heart. I wanna go and cry. It's so sad to watch a sweet thing die. Oh, Caroline, why? Could I ever find in you again, Things that made me love you so much then? Could we ever bring 'em back, once they have gone? Oh, Caroline, no. - js. |

yup, the video for Boys Of Summer always just grabs me right in the heart and just squeezes - like looking at raw footage from my own life.

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago, Turned around backwards so the windshield shows Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse Still, it's so much clearer I forgot my shirt at the water's edge The moon is low tonight Nightswimming deserves a quiet night I'm not sure all these people understand It's not like years ago, The fear of getting caught, Of recklessness and water They cannot see me naked These things, they go away, Replaced by everyday Nightswimming, remembering that night September's coming soon I'm pining for the moon And what if there were two Side by side in orbit Around the fairest sun? That bright, tight forever drum Could not describe nightswimming You, I thought I knew you You, I cannot judge You, I thought you knew me, This one laughing quietly underneath my breath Nightswimming The photograph reflects, Every streetlight a reminder Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night REM |

Summer, fall, winter, spring
All the seasons I will sing To help you through your birth As you spend your time on earth In the wind The summer song won't last long When this warm moment has gone I'll sing you of your birth As you spend your time on earth In the wind And so it goes As the wind blows The seasons will flow To help you through your birth As you spend your time on earth In the wind A mother's child A father's son In this crowd, I'm only one To tell you of your worth As you spend your time on earth In the wind And so it goes As the wind blows And so it goes As the wind blows Steve Miller |

The summer wind, came blowin’ in - from across the sea
It lingered there, to touch your hair - and walk with me All summer long, we sang a song - and then we strolled that golden sand Two sweethearts, and the summer wind Like painted kites, those days and nights - they went flyin’ by The world was new, beneath a blue - umbrella sky Then softer than, a piper man - one day it called to you I lost you, I lost you to the summer wind The autumn wind, and the winter winds - they have come and gone And still the days, those lonely days - they go on and on And guess who sighs his lullabies - through nights that never end My fickle friend, the summer wind Frank Sinatra |

Naked As We Came
She says "Wake up, it's no use pretending." I'll keep stealing, breathing her. Birds are leaving over autumn's ending. One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes 'round the yard. She says "If I leave before you, darling Don't you waste me in the ground." I lay smiling like our sleeping children. One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes 'round the yard. Iron & Wine from Our Endless Numbered Days |

Oh, it's a long, long while
From May to December But the days grow short, When you reach September. When the autumn weather Turn leaves to flame One hasn't got time For the waiting game. Oh the days dwindle down To a precious few . . . September, November . . . And these few precious days I'll spend with you. These precious days I'll spend with you. Oh the days dwindle down To a precious few . . . September, November . . . And these few precious days I'll spend with you. These precious days I'll spend with you. These precious days I'll spend with you. |

Earth Wind And Fire - September
Do you remember the 21st night of september?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders While chasing the clouds away Our hearts were ringing In the key that our souls were singing. As we danced in the night, Remember how the stars stole the night away Ba de ya - say do you remember Ba de ya - dancing in september Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day |

The old minimalist standby which gets me readdicted to Secrets of the Beehive at the end of every summer:
The sun shines high above The sounds of laughter The birds swoop down upon The crosses of old grey churches We say that we're in love While secretly wishing for rain Sipping Coke and playing games September's here again September's here again |
