Afternoon shade lazily lays over pale cement
As we watch the passing cars beyond the fence
Bending in the wake the wild oats tremble on their stems
And I cannot help but feel these accidents
Summer found an exit sign and passed the stage along
For the gentle breezes autumn conjures here
Freshly cut St. Augustine perfumes the scattered lawns
As the sunny days begin to disappear
I remember everything as if it were today
And I wonder how tomorrow will respond
Caught inside the thought of being carried far away
I can drink my drink and listen to a song
Life is unpredictable like weather in the fall
And the storms can shape the landscape of our hearts
Time arrives and leaves without a curtesy at all
Like the steady hum of all these passing cars
