Standard (EADGBE)
Sipping wine in the august rain
watching our lives go down the drain
Hoping that we'd both keep sane
somehow
As we drifted down a distant shore
Our dreams were lived but I wanted more
I wish that she could hear me sing
right now
Summer came and left again
I staggered by her until the end
She said we'd always still be friends
But I guess that's how it goes
(How it goes)
I cannot seem to understand
Why she left me crashing without her hand
I wrote her name out in the sand
but it's gone
The waves came racing in so high
I never even said goodbye
They say that consience never lies
but that's all I have left of you
(All I have left of you)
Summer came and left again
I staggered by her until the end
She said we'd always still be friends
But I guess that's how it goes
(How it goes)
