Today Is The Last Day of Summer

I think I was away the day when you said you were too smart to play
And you'd only beat me anyway
It's funny how I would have stayed
And you said you were a friend of mine
But that's not what I had in mind
I think I fell in love that time on the last day of summer
I tried to walk the line, hoped everything would turn out fine
But I lost the reasons and the rhymes on the last day
And then the rain came down
And sparkled the signs of the underground
And the darkness fell all over town on the last day
