I've been in this town for days
This summer it is gonna be long
And I heard you came and went, but now you're gone

I remember when we spoke
The light shined off of your eyes
Reflections of my face showed no surprise

Now I hear you call my name
But I crawl back in my house for days
To fix the leaking pipes,
That you always used to hate

Now shouldn't you decide?
I will pack away my photographs and pride
How will we divide what is left of our past lives?
I want to believe what you say to me
I know it's real despite all you do.

Soon you will be back again
Without all of these words that you speak
Can I hold you close without
Making you weep?
