she smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles
when the world is hers and she held your eyes
out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer
and she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
she looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
but you've already lost (x3)
when you only had barely enough to hang on
and she combed your hair, and she kissed your TEETH
and she made you better than you'd been before
she told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
and she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
she said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"
but you've already lost(x3)
when you only had barely enough to hang on
she said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
and you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known
some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure
days like that should last and last and last
but you've already lost(x3)
when you only had barely enough of her to
hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on

Review about Dusk And Summer amazing.... | Reviewer: santi | 6/2/09
I love this song so much, it's so beautiful and so sad. It really makes you think about what's important. You've got to take chances and don't let things slip through your fingers. Paige that's such a sad story and I know I won't ever take my boyfriend for granted.

is truly amazing... I went to a Dashboard concert about a year ago and when he sang this song the first thing he said before he started was that this song was about a girl that died and nobody saw it coming...
"nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer" I think... I think she doesn't leave him... not for another.. but I think she just.. died. I mean.. that makes more sense... so sad :( but pretty still.
This has to be my favorite song by Dashboard.
It's basically my song with my ex...at one point i was dating a guy that had major emotional issues and then one day we were sitting in the meadow behind his house, and didn't say a word...he just sat there with me in his arms...and I remember I was kind of being cranky that day, and after he gave me a good-bye kiss, he went in for another one, but I turned away and just said I'd see him tomorrow.
The next day, he wasn't at school...
He'd overdosed on sleeping pills that night.
It just goes to show we take everything for granted...we should really take the time to appreciate what we have...the thigns that tie our life together...because we might not get another chance...
I know I wouldn't have held him so loose if I ever could have known.
