The Last Summer

We made a bed in the back of your dad's pickup
Six more weeks, staying home 'til our youth was up
In the tall grass I told you
"I'd never move on"

August moved above the river, made the water sit flat
And I knew we were leavin', but I didn't know that
It was all set in motion, and we couldn't go back

In the last summer
We ain't ever goin' back again
We ain't ever goin' back again, we ain't never
In the last summer
We ain't ever goin' back again
We ain't ever goin' back again, no, we're never)

Like the sixth moon landing
Okinawa notwithstanding
Ride-or-die are all disbanding
We ain't ever goin' back again

We made plans for the world, thinkin' we'd stay the same
Burn right Moses's bush, where the leaves don't change
Our lives were the dust, just the dust and the light

In the last summer
We ain't ever goin' back again
We ain't ever goin' back again, we ain't never
In the last summer
We ain't ever goin' back again
We ain't ever goin' back again, no, we're never

Like the sixth moon landing
Okinawa notwithstanding
Ride-or-die are all disbanding
(We ain't ever goin' back again)

Like Nixon's helicopter
The last stand for G.A. Custer
Alaska's last Blockbuster
(We ain't ever goin' back again)

New Orleans bounce, Sultana
Eisenhower to Havana
Fourth ring for Joe Montana
(We ain't ever goin' back again)

Like my Myspace user
Or the three queen tutors
An open door for D.B. Cooper
We ain't ever goin' back again

I ain't ever goin' back again
You ain't ever goin' back again
We ain't ever goin' back again
