Afternoon

A little talk could hold me for a little while

Another brush of whiskers and that distant smile

So little life remaining and the shadows won't contain me

The book of night is closing for the child

I knew you were a strange girl or I thought you were

You mustered all the wonder from the room of hurt

We knew the world of summer

Like a sister, like a brother

And the melodies were sweeter left unheard

We fell down a

Hole

Don't you

Remember

We fell so fall

Below

And never found the center

Another word or

Two

And all the summer

Knew

In the song of

The afternoon

Afternoon

You never play September in a winter game
