lyrics

My sleepy seaside town
Wakes up in the middle of May
Goes back to sleep
Just after Labor Day

Sultry air feels
Just like Summer love
Heady with lusty
Anticipation

Oh, I’m way past middle age
Still longing for center stage
Trying to silence my rage
Cause I’m still sitting backstage

Lonesome old men
Still trying to write love songs
Drowning on the beach
In a sea of thongs

Labor Day has come and gone
Everything feels so wrong
Autumn celebrates death
With crimson on her breath

Oh, I’m way past middle age
Still longing for center stage
Trying to silence my rage
Cause I’m still sitting backstage

But I remember those days
When we walked hand in hand
Bare feet dancing in the sand
Our smiles floating on the breeze

Long, empty beaches
Aching for bare feet
Wild winds blow
I can’t hear my heartbeat

Oh, I love the scent of your smile
And my black widow flower
Ravens are screaming
Louder and louder

Oh, I’m way past middle age
Still longing for center stage
Trying to silence my rage,
Cause I’m still sitting backstage

My sleepy seaside town
Woke up in the middle of May
Went back to sleep
Just after Labor Day
