Looking in a window on a rainy day
Thinking about good things that i just threw away
Looking in the gutter, watching the trash go flowing by
Thinking it's summer, but there are only clouds in the sky

When i think about what we wasted, makes me sad,
We never appreciated what we had
Now i'm standing in a doorway with my overcoat on,
It really feels like summer's gone
So alone
Summer's gone

It should have been a laugh, it should have been fun,
When i think of all the things that we did last summer
Now i look back, it seems such a crime,
We couldn't appreciate it at the time

Now i'm standing in a doorway, thinking of summers gone by
It ought to make me happy, but it just makes me want to cry
I was riding in the car with my mum and dad,
He was drivin' the car, the kids were drivin' him mad
Dad looked at us, then he looked at his wife,
He must have wondered where we all came from
And then mum said, "dad, you know it won't last for long,
Before you know it, summer's gone"
So alone
Summer's gone

I really blew it all, when i think it through,
I really lost it all when i lost you
Now i'm standing in a doorway with water in my shoes,
It really feels like, feels like summers gone
So alone
Summer's gone
Summer's gone, so alone
Summer's gone
