Folk Song 5

from Curtains by Paris Street

/

about

Another variation on the breakdown summer.

Fun fact: This was supposed to be the second song on a 5-song EP that we were going to release in 2009. All of it was recorded and ready to go but I scuttled the entire thing because I was never, ever able to get the upright bass on this song to sound the way I wanted. So it goes.

lyrics

Summertime comes to a grateful end
At a bar with drunks and friends of friends
Another vaunted start
That quickly falls apart
Summertime comes to a grateful end

This in not the place where I should be
Wasting time in wasted company
There's no reason to stay
But staying anyway
This is not the place where I should be

It's a long way to go
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to go
From here

Summertime comes to a grateful end
Looking back and trying to comprehend
A quiet basement kiss
Another girl to miss
Summertime comes to a grateful end
