The summer is gone
I'm working on a new song
the summer is gone
I'm walking in the cold sun

What happened the last two years
I took a trip to the sun
got a job and lost it again
but I still got the same girlfriend

The summer is gone
I'm working on a new song
the summer is gone
I'm walking in the cold sun

Green and blue make yellow they say
I know I tried it yesterday
what's near and what's far away
a girl on a sunny day

The summer is gone
I'm working on a new song
the summer is gone
I'm walking in the cold sun

In my house and in my car
in my pocket, wallet, cookie jar
on the roof and the chimney tops
in the air and the way it rocks
the way the trees stand in my street
it's pretty hard to get on your feet
the summer is gone
I'm walkin' 
walkin' in the cold sun
