lyrics

Sitting on your back step
Drinking wine
A slow Summer day
Slipping by

In your cotton Summer dress
And nothing else
This gold afternoon
All so fine

The say that a life of pleasure
Will be the downfall of you and me
But sometimes babe, I've got to say
That's just so hard to believe

You said to me
"This don't mean a thing.
There are no holds
on me or you"

Well that's fine with me
And anyway
That meaning something mostly just leaves me wondering
What to do

The say that a life of pleasure
Can only lead to misery
But sometimes babe, I've got to say
That's just so hard to believe

Like the colours of that setting sun
All up the sky
This time
Passed us by

That cold creeping in, I tell myself
It's alright
As I grip the wheel
A little more tight
