[Unraveling seemed the best way to say it. That lurking feeling that you can't keep up with the band.... Regular things aren't making sense. Summer's over, and you have to go home...but where is that?] After the summer has gone There's a time and a place and a meaning to everything You never noticed before Leaves start to change and you know That the sound of the wheels on the road on the way to go home It's the same but life's rearranged‚ something's unraveling But something remains I used to be something special I used to be one of a kind Now like everyone else‚ every man's for himself And the magical band that played songs that you couldn't understand It was all sleight of hand Sooner or later it's clear Every mystery leads to another but you're not alone So you keep your love near when your heart breaks You just say you understand I used to be something special I used to be one of a kind Now like everyone else‚ every man's for himself And the magical band that played songs that you couldn't understand It was all sleight of hand After the summer is gone There's a time and a place and a meaning to everything You never noticed before the unraveling You just say you understand
