Summer

(album: A Place To Exist - 2023)

How's the weather?
I could be better
Thought I saw you, I was wrong
Kept all your letters
But forgot the context
Like rain that's come and gone

When I left I was lonely
I guess I felt you owed me
For everything you never asked and never saw
And now the sea is icy
I can't feel you beside me
We froze our feet just waiting on the shore

Your sister told your brother
I saw someone hurt your mother
It destroyed a perfect summer
We could hardly see each other
I would walk you to the ocean
Just to see the waves in motion
Laying waste with their corrosion
Wishing that I hadn't spoken

Friends were leaving
Tides receding
But we kept the fire strong
Skies were bleeding
Thought we found meaning
But lost it in the storm

When I left I was lonely
I guess I felt you owed me
For everything you never asked and never saw
And now the sea is icy
I can't feel you beside me
We froze our feet just waiting on the shore

Your sister told your brother
I saw someone hurt your mother
It destroyed a perfect summer
We could hardly see each other
I would walk you to the ocean
Just to see the waves in motion
Laying waste with their corrosion
Wishing that I hadn't spoken

Your sister told your brother
I saw someone hurt your mother
It destroyed a perfect summer
We could hardly see each other
I would walk you to the ocean
Just to see the waves in motion
Laying waste with their corrosion
Wishing that I hadn't spoken
