Lyrics

the sun is going down across, the great unknown, lights come on inside the towers made of stone, a muffled drum plays, out of sight and all alone, summer is over, the city lies awake, and breathes electric air, the sailor in the bar, dreams of a love affair, young girls seem to shimmer, in fluorescent glare, summer is over, it's a never ending show, faces come and go, like a river, you're a rainbow, wrapped in gray, shake the dust away, like a river, but don't forget me, don't forget me now, don't forget me, don't forget me now, the crowd is spilling, from the video arcade, the owner of the restaurant, pulls down the shade, the thunder of the trucks, is like a cannonade, but now it's over,
