Squeaky swings and tall grass
The longest shadows ever cast
The water´s warm and children swim
And we frolicked about in our summer skin

I don´t recall a single care
Just greenery and humid air
Then Labor Day came and went
And we shed what was left of our summer skin

On the night you left I came over
And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders
Our brand new coats were so flushed and pink
And I knew your heart I couldn´t win
Because the season´s change was a conduit
And we´d left our love in our summer skin
