Mark Heard - All Too Soon lyrics

Red ball of sun falters until it's out of reach Head in my hand stranded on some deserted beach Starlight brushes my shoulder Tonight I'm suddenly older All too soon Summer is over All too soon the planet is colder All too soon heartbeats are slower All too soon the season is sleeping All too soon the willows are weeping All too soon clockhands are creeping Moon on the rise Gold hall of beeswax rolling in space Wind in my eyes Caught in a draft of time and place No crowds -- moon and me only Surf pounds, I'm suddenly lonely All too soon Summer is over All too soon the planet is colder All too soon heartbeats are slower All too soon the season is sleeping All too soon the willows are weeping All too soon clockhands are creeping I love this life slipping through my hands I close my eyes Ribbon of road hazy ahead in taillight red Radio on weaving a memory with musical thread Feelings gush like a geyser I think I'm older and wiser All too soon Summer is over All too soon the planet is colder All too soon heartbeats are slower All too soon the season is sleeping All too soon the willows are weeping All too soon clockhands are creeping
