I don't know how it ends
You know how it is
Our summers of pretend and smokin'
We gathered up our friend
And headed for Cleveland
The weekend
And Escape At Hand
Now fortune's with the band
And your heart is in your hand
And Canada's more clan than country
"Okay... okay..."
And you wonder as it ends
When they'll pass this way again
Through summers of pretend
Smokin'
Won't be any map this year
Won't be rollin' anymore
To the sound of howlin' here
'Cause summer's comin' one man short
Up at the arcade
The ghosts of apostles
Hands over hearts, they wait
For word from the Northern shore
The skies fell dark
In their canonical gospels
In ours it snowed
As the record slowed
Won't be any maps this year
Word's out on 4th
Won't be any growlin' here
'Cause winter's comin' one voice short
Don't know how it ends
But tonight just let's pretend
Gather up our friends, and clear
A table at the turn
Where the Cuyahoga burned
And talk of days well-landed up to here
Here
