Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The summer sun fades from the gold in your hair
As leaves turn to whispers of autumn in the air
We traced heart shapes in the sand, so unaware
That time was slipping, a vanishing affair
(Pre-Chorus)
Remember how the waves danced at our feet?
Nights so wild, so bitterly sweet
But seasons shift in a heartbeat
(Chorus)
Now the fairgrounds are empty, it's all so quiet
Gone are the echoes of our midsummer riot
I watch the sunsets alone, can't deny it
Summer's a dream, and we can't rewind it
Speak now or forever hold on to the silence
(Verse 2)
The boardwalk's deserted, the laughter's gone
Your jacket's still here, but it's been too long
Rides are still, where we once belonged
Under the neon lights, where nothing felt wrong
(Pre-Chorus)
Fireworks burst, but they've faded away
From brilliant skies to skies of gray
And I find myself wishing you had stayed
(Chorus)
Now the fairgrounds are empty, it's all so quiet
Gone are the echoes of our midsummer riot
I watch the sunsets alone, can't deny it
Summer's a dream, and we can't rewind it
Speak now or forever hold on to the silence
(Bridge)
Was it just a season's fling?
Rapid like the spring, gone too fast, too soon
I'm left with only tunes, played out under the moon
(Chorus)
Now the fairgrounds are empty, it's all so quiet
Gone are the echoes of our midsummer riot
I watch the sunsets alone, can't deny it
Summer's a dream, and we can't rewind it
Speak now or forever hold on to the silence
(Outro)
So I'll hold onto the memories as leaves will fall
Speak now, love, or not at all
Summer whispers goodbye, and into autumn, we're drawn
Speak now, the silence is gone
(Bridge)
Was it just a season's fling?
Rapid like the spring, gone too fast, too soon
I'm left with only tunes, played out under the moon
(Chorus)
Now the fairgrounds are empty, it's all so quiet
Gone are the echoes of our midsummer riot
I watch the sunsets alone, can't deny it
Summer's a dream, and we can't rewind it
Speak now or forever hold on to the silence
(Outro)
So I'll hold onto the memories as leaves will fall
Speak now, love, or not at all
Summer whispers goodbye, and into autumn, we're drawn
Speak now, the silence is gone
