The Last Garden of Summer - BeeWaee
I cut the dead flowers after lunch
and left the good ones by the gate
You used to say I waited too long
to throw anything away
There was dirt beneath my fingernails and sunlight on the wall
I thought about calling you, then didn't want to after all
Maybe that's how it happens
not all at once just less
In the last garden of summer
I finally thought of you
without needing an answer
without needing something new
In the last garden of summer
I let the old days be
still beautiful from a distance
just not waiting there for me
I found the chair you always took
half hidden by the vines
For a second I could hear you laugh like you were still outside
I sat there until evening
with nowhere else to be
and realized being alone wasn't as lonely as it used to be
The light stayed on the roses
a little longer than I thought
In the last garden of summer
I finally thought of you
without needing an answer
without needing something new
In the last garden of summer
I let the old days be
still beautiful from a distance
just not waiting there for me
I loved you, that was real
I don't need to change the past
But loving someone once
doesn't mean it has to last
I can miss the way it felt
and still be glad it's gone
Some memories get softer
when you stop holding on
In the last garden of summer
the evening turned to gold
I thought I'd feel much sadder
watching everything grow old
In the last garden of summer
I left your chair outside
and walked back to the house
without looking behind
Tomorrow I'll trim the roses
maybe open all the doors
Summer doesn't leave in one day
and neither do we
