Long Cold Day

we separate and fall away
haven't had too many things to say...lately
and it's a sad sad thing to see
time has had it's way with us...with you and me
the toll that life has taken on us
heaped the burden weight upon us
we can't see the light...that brought us together

and it's a long cold day in the afternoon
i remember a summer day
but it's gone away...died too soon
it's a long long way from the summer nights
we thought it would be alright
but it's gone away...died too soon

we live another day goes by
passes into another night...are we still friends?
it's a sad sad thing to think
that we're just gonna let it be...and let it end
the things that we have seen go down
are dead and buried in the ground
we can't feel the warmth...that brought us together

and it's a long cold day in the afternoon
i remember a summer day
but it's gone away...died too soon
it's a long long way from the summer nights
we thought it would be alright
but it's gone away...died too soon
