Autumn days by the sea
Everyone and the sun had departed
He was lonesome like me
So the chance for romance might have started
He spoke of friendship much too much
And never looked my way Still I think of him
until today
Perhaps he was more than a friend Perhaps
it's a game I pretend
Perhaps he meant love when he first said hello
But I was too foolish to know
And let him go And let him go
He took hold of my hand
As we strode in the cold of September
Then he
wrote in the sand
Just my name and the words I'll remember
Like children's castles near the shore They soon were washed away
Still I think of him
until today
Perhaps he was more than a friend Perhaps
it's a game I pretend
