Lyrics
In the air there?s a chill
But the water is still fine
The summer?s winding down
And this might be the last time that
I have with you
Let?s have one more barbeque
Savour September?s nights
When the stars are very bright
Stare upwards at the trees
Before our eyes the leaves are changed
To red and gold
For the first time I feel old
But let?s enjoy the long weekend
The time we?ve left to spend
Until kids go back to school
Oh I feel like fortune?s fool because
In two days you?ll be gone
Winter is very long
I wish that you could stay
But tomorrow?s Labour Day
(So let?s go out and play!)
Tomorrow?s Labour Day
Now start preparing for the fall
When life slows to a crawl
Mother Nature starts dying
The birds will all be flying away
As earth turns cold
For the first time I feel old
But let?s enjoy the long weekend etc.
On Tuesday morning we have to be up early
Your bus leaves at 7:30
I?ve grown obsessed if you know what I mean
I can already picture the scene:
You and I will both be standing there
An awkward silence fills the air
I?m wondering what?s the last words we?ll say?
When tomorrow?s Labour Day
Tomorrow?s Labour Day
