Dan's Song

Me and my friend Dan

Are going to get some beers

And then we're going to go down

To the park and drink them there

We'll busk out in the sun

Play guitar and sing some songs

Pull up our friends and

Invite them down to share

What might be

The last weekend of the summer

'Cause September getting colder, as it goes

And we haven't done enough

Of this simple kind of stuff

This year we're clearly getting older

And it shows

Well work weeks make us weary

School's a distant memory

And it's easy to ask questions

Of ourselves

Like where it is we're going?

And what we had to show

From the sunny days we've

In the shelves

With expectations of our ultimate direction

All the stations

That we should have reached by now

Where we haven't read the script

And our tender wings are clipped

And we're scared we might be

Letting someone down

Listen to these heart-break songs

When nothings really wrong

And then we smile

When we're asked

And say we're fine

We're drifting through

Our middle days

And creeping

Into middle age

And setting in our ways

And now it's time

To decide

Now it's time

To draw the line

In the sand

And ask

What's more important than

Days like today

So grab some beers

Call your friends

And meet us here

In the summer park

With me and my friend Dan
