And the sunset lingers last on the ocean
Oranging those patches of clouds and then the blue follows hard

And the summer leaves a note for the autumn
Gently closing a door somewhere in the sky

And I cannot leave you alone
And I can't get you off of my mind, no, never

And I watch the waves crawl up to the sand
As high as they can and return their salt to oblivion

And I lay there eyeing the stars through the window
Figuring it can't be there with us when holy love fills the void

And I can't get it all sorted out
But you were the first one to call, and I missed you
