You crash out on his side

All is quiet, all is calm

The air thick with stale smoke, 

Your cheap perfume and alcohol

And although you know you need him 

Like a stake through your heart

You think it's worse to stay apart



Cause it's the last day of summer,

And it will hurt you more than most

Cause you're still trying to mine for memories in a ghost

Yeah, it's the last day of summer

And you know you're not supposed,

But you're still trying to mine for memories in a ghost



You're absence makes no sense, 

just a constant state of suspense

And although you both know 

The bubble might burst as soon as you meet

Another false start, rather than to stay apart



Cause it's the last day of summer,

And it will hurt you more than most

Cause you're still trying to mine for memories in a ghost

Yeah, it's the last day of summer

And you know you're not supposed,

But you're still trying to mine for memories in a ghost



It's the last day of summer

And you know you're not supposed

You're still trying to mine for memories in a ghost

It's the last day of summer

It's the last day of summer

It's the last day of summer
