lyrics
Pool water drying in my ears Your brother's car, windows down The best and last of all the years Nobody says it out loud September's standing in the yard We wave at it and wave it off One more lap around the block One more lap around the block Nobody look at the clock One more lap around the block One more lap around the block Four names drying in cement Outside the corner store Proof of how the summer went When we're not here anymore Boxes in the hall at Jen's College sweatshirts on my friends Hold the light, hold the light One last bike ride, then goodnight One more lap around the block One more lap around the block One more lap around the block
