Late Afternoon

Late afternoon
Lingers like a shadow
Always on my mind, not in control
Tired of the twisted way things go

Once upon a rainy day
Met and it was all okay
Storm season’s my favorite
With you it never seemed to end
Who said love is like a game?
Hurt the ones who’d love to stay
Always unavailable
Tried to play it off like c o o l
Ran into somebody new, like the sun
But you’re the moon
Too much light got in my eyes, always partial to the night

So much to lose, no matter how it falls someone gets bruised
Can’t fake your satisfaction, there’s still attraction
To the ones who let us down

People can’t be saved for
A rainy day
Your feelings washed away but I’ve still got a storm so
Rain, go away. Come again so other day
Can’t be explained, why exactly people change

Late afternoon lingers like a shadow
Always on my mind not in control
