It Didn't Last

So it means this summer's gone
I've seen how
The autumn season raises the flag

You bought a ticket to love
I've seen how
You fell asleep down by the lake

You put a new picture on the wall
In your new house
You chose a nice spot down the hall

The wind is howling
Leaves are falling
Shadows paint the sky
The moon is drawing
Figures in the clouds
A scary thought
It didn't last

You bought a ticket to love
Man, how are you
& how is she?
I didn't mean to raise the dead

So it means this summer's gone
The picture still hanging on the wall
Now the frame is broken

The wind was howling
Leaves were falling
Shadows paint the sky
The moon was drawing
Figures in the clouds
A scary thought
It didn't last
