The fading scent of summertime
Arbutus trees and Firs
The glistening of rain-soaked moss
Going to the Dairy Queen at dusk
Down narrow roads
In autumn light

The salt air and the sawmills
And the bars are full of songs and tears
To the passing of the tugboats
And people with their big ideas

I just get home
And then I leave again
It's long ago and far away
Now we're skimming stones
And exchanging rings
There's scattering and sailing from departure bay

The house was bare of Christmas lights
It came down hard that year
Outside in our overcoats
Drinking down to the bitter end
Trying to make things right
Like my mother did

Last year we were laughing
We sang in church so beautifully
Now her perfume's on the bathroom counter
And I'm sitting in the back pew crying

I just get home
And then I leave again
It's long ago and far away
Now we're skimming stones
And exchanging rings
There's scattering and sailing from departure bay

A song plays on the gramophone
And thoughts turn back to life
We took the long way to get back
Like driving over the Malahat
Now a seaplane drones
And time has flown

I won't miss all the glamour
While my heart is beating and the lilacs bloom
But who knew when I started
That I'd find a love and bring him home

Just get me there
And one we will stay
A long time off and far away
Now we're skimming stones
And exchanging rings
We're scattering and diving in departure bay


Mirror lyrics:

We're scattering and diving in departure bay
And exchanging rings
Now we're skimming stones
A long time off and far away
And one we will stay
Just get me there

That I'd find a love and bring him home
But who knew when I started
While my heart is beating and the lilacs bloom
I won't miss all the glamour

And time has flown
Now a seaplane drones
Like driving over the Malahat
We took the long way to get back
And thoughts turn back to life
A song plays on the gramophone

There's scattering and sailing from departure bay
And exchanging rings
Now we're skimming stones
It's long ago and far away
And then I leave again
I just get home

And I'm sitting in the back pew crying
Now her perfume's on the bathroom counter
We sang in church so beautifully
Last year we were laughing

Like my mother did
Trying to make things right
Drinking down to the bitter end
Outside in our overcoats
It came down hard that year
The house was bare of Christmas lights

There's scattering and sailing from departure bay
And exchanging rings
Now we're skimming stones
It's long ago and far away
And then I leave again
I just get home

And people with their big ideas
To the passing of the tugboats
And the bars are full of songs and tears
The salt air and the sawmills

In autumn light
Down narrow roads
Going to the Dairy Queen at dusk
The glistening of rain-soaked moss
Arbutus trees and Firs
The fading scent of summertime
