It's Never Too Late To Be Alone

Summer here is over in a million different ways

You look like a dream sometimes but I don't dream these days

Yesterday the snow fell by four o'clock it thawed

And last night making love to you well honey it was such a fraud

'Cause you can find yourself a lover

You can make yourself a home

You can want no other ever

But it's never to late to be alone

So everything is settled or so we do pretend

From a beautiful beginning babe to a muted kind of end

And our separate possessions are shuffled up on shelves

Like our fingers lock together when we talk about ourselves

You can find yourself one day staring into space

With a suitcase waiting by the door

You can think you've got it made til it hits you in the face

That these are not the people you wanted to be before

Summer here is over you can feel it in the air

From the down-town shells to the upland hills

The chill is everywhere
