"The heart has reasons that reason does not understand" -Jacques Benigne Bossuel


Hey you, you grew up nicely
How are you? It’s all I can
Say now, it’s been a long time
Even longer in my mind

A head full of memories, filled to the brim
Now I feel lonely, won’t see you again
I’m sorry I never truly explained
I wanted so badly to stop that plane

I miss our summers, I miss the sound
The outside world, how we’d drown it out
Young and cautious, I’d follow you
All that you wanted, I dreamed of too
So how’s your life, so how are you?
I won’t dare ask, but I think we’re through

Through all the songs you’d sing for me
One of them had to mean something
Through all the times you let me win
You’re aggressive, but you gave in
So many moments I want to relieve
I gave you all I knew how to give

I miss our summers, I miss the sound
The outside world, how we’d drown it out
Young and cautious, I’d follow you
All that you wanted, I dreamed of too
So how’s your life, so how are you?
I won’t dare ask, but I think we’re through

Hey you, you grew up nicely
Say goodbye, to summer for me
You know it’s been a long time
Even longer in my mind

Is there anything sweeter than a fleeting summer love?
