The Last Day Of Summer
Jennifer Rush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There are times I can visualise
Lonely nights without you in my life Took a
Long time to see
Want to make you believe
Our love will survive
The last day of summer
Sitting here now
I see the pouring rain
Just a thought of you
Makes me wonder again
How I've opened my heart
And can promise to be
Faithfully yours finally
I believe I surrender
From the mountains of faith
Through the rivers of tears
I believe and I surrender
Even though I don't know what the future
Might hold As our fate unfolds now I will not
Let go
Our love will survive
The last day of summer
I remember how it used to be
Was a miracle you understood but still Had to
Break down those walls
That kept me from a dream
That's all come true because of you
I believe I surrender
From the mountains of faith
Through the rivers of tears
I believe and I surrender
Even though I don't know what the future
Might hold As our fate unfolds now I will not
Let go
Our love will survive
I believe I surrender
From the mountains of faith
Through the rivers of tears
I believe and I surrender
Even though I don't know what the future
Might hold As our fate unfolds now I will
Never let go
Our love will survive
The last day of summer,




The last day of summer, the last day of
Summer

Aaron is the most astonishing exceptional method actor ever; Back in 2009 when he first came out but had difficulties accepting it himself, the most extraordinary method acting I`ve ever see, too good for comfort
