From the recording Collecting
Lyrics
All our hopes are scattered on the pavement
Sidewalk chalk is drawn
Sun baked scotch
We all just hop along
Through hoops we jump
Each bruise and bump
Flagpole dares and fisticuffs
Summer's gone, fall is coming up
And August ash is like our dreams
sentimental smoke screens
Growin up's like grass stained jeans
Dirty hands, bloody knees
Ya shed a tear and then ya wash em clean
Pack it away and wear some longer sleeves
Still August ash is like our dreams
Sentimental smoke screens
Now leaves are raining down
Leaves are raining down
Leaves are raining down
Let's pile em up, jump in, and splash around
Now leaves are raining down
Leaves are raining down
Leaves are raining down
In Autumn embers new hopes are found
