Death Cab For Cutie Summer Skin Lyrics

Summer Skin Lyrics

Squeaky swings and tall grass 

The longest shadows ever cast 

The water's warm and children swim 

And we frolicked about in our summer skin 



I don't recall a single care 

Just greenery and humid air 

Then Labor day came and went 

And we shed what was left of our summer skin 



On the night you left I came over 

And we peel the freckles from our shoulders 

Our brand new coats so flushed in pink

And I knew your heart I couldn't win

Cause the seasons change was a conduit 

And we left our love in our summer skin
