Sweet Afternoons

Seems like a lifetime ago
You weren't that far away
Now your voice sounds so cold
Not much more we could say

Now we're both really gone
Hanging on for dear life
Did we hang on too long?
Now it can't be set right

Never sought out pretension
I thought I knew what to do
So I gave all my attention
To you

When summer's over
I said, "we'll see this through"
Now we're growing older
Our lives are split in two

Time didn't help each other
The time went by to soon
You lied to keep our cover
And enjoyed those sweet afternoons
You've enjoyed those sweet afternoons

Seems like a lifetime ago
We'd say how much we care
About a future we'd hold
Was it ever there?

When all the things that go wrong
Get to take over your life
It's so hard to act calm
When you can't find a light

Trust is the coldest weapon
It gets to warm up your heart
So you lose your direction
When it's torn apart

Don't really know much
Of why this came so soon
You would bring the sun up
Well I was always the moon

Time didn't help each other
I hope we're happy soon
You lied to keep our cover
And enjoyed those sweet afternoons
You've enjoyed those sweet afternoons
