Golden hours stretching long
Faded skies and distant song
The echo of your sunlit laugh
Now just shadows in the grass
I knew the days would lose their fire
But still I stayed, caught in desire
You slipped like sand through open hands
While I still danced on summer’s plans
Summer fade, don’t go too fast
Let me hold this while it lasts
Barefoot nights and skies so wide
Still flicker warm behind my eyes
Leaves begin to paint the air
But I still feel you everywhere
Your touch was sun, your voice a breeze
Now just a ghost in rustling trees
I won't chase what’s meant to go
But I'll keep you in the afterglow
You were the spark, you were the flame
And seasons turn, but hearts remain
Summer fade, don’t go too fast
Let me hold this while it lasts
Barefoot nights and skies so wide
Still flicker warm behind my eyes
