**As Summer Fades**

1. Stick Season - Noah Kahan
2. Autumn Leaves - Nat “King” Cole
3. The Summer Wind - Frank Sinatra

The autumn wind and the winter winds  
They have come and gone  
And still the days, those lonely days, they go on and on  
And guess who sighs his lullabies  
Through nights that never end  
My fickle friend, the summer wind
