The Last Night of Summer Lyrics

Even though there are two more days of August still left

Tonight feels like the last night of summer

So I laid my back down on the warm green grass

And looked up at the stars

The constellations surround me as I stare at the crescent moon

Surrounded by my old willow tree

And I was thinking of how much time has passed since June

And how fast I'm approaching 23

The summer is coming to an end

And I'm no longer a kid

I have to face the harsh Autumn wind

All alone

I feel like I'm moving forward in time and space

But with my feet still planted on the ground

And as the years go on I'm getting more afraid

That I'm going to be the only one around

Who hasn't really made anything of his life

Still stuck in Idaho with this Teton ukulele

I know I'll have to get out of here and take that ride

Because I can already see these changing leaves

The summer is coming to an end

I know I don't have much time left

To shed all this remaining adolescent discontent

But I know, I'll be alone

The summer is coming to an end

Out of high school, now out of college

Saying goodbye to this long summer spent

Many years ago, but it's over

The summer has come to an end

Out from the void I decent

To prepare for whatever lies ahead

All alone, so long to that summer innocence

I know there are two more days of September left

Tonight feels like the end of summer

So I laid back down on the cool green grass

And I stared up at the stars
