JubyPhonic - Summertime Record

The sun’s been nice the past few days

I sit around just to watch all the clouds

A lazy hazy blue sky time

This sighing air that’s closing my eyes

A memory that just won’t come

It’s getting harder everyday

Cuz years and minutes all fly by

And just like that we’re old and grown

Aah

Adult world plans to understand

The midnight walks, funny signals to talk

“Let’s fight the day, it’s war” we’d say

Hold out your lone hand and rise up against

It made no sense but went with it

The lonely hearts just too weak to resist

Lost as I was and never found

I couldn’t take another round

Parting through waves in this tall field of grass

Glaring a hole through hazy sun

Shouting to me turning to your side

“Don’t wanna be alone? Then come and don’t!”

Even the things that I felt from before

Born in the noise that had knocked at my door

Fold in my mind and slowly flying out of sight

“Was it all a dream in the haze?”

A secret place for me and you

Where everyday was fun and new

A simple time played in our heads

We’ll tell this story again

A jet stream shoots across the sky

“It’s just so bright” we stare wide eyed

What did your face look like back then?

I don’t know why, but I can’t see it at all

A welcomed pained reality

Ran through and soon had all passed me on by

Our chosen days go slow in pace

But any second could come falling down

Played overtime the past few days

Adults afraid and then looking away

I think somewhere along on the road

We realized a lot about…

Feeling the world going ’round and around

Seeing a dying sun beat down

Shining a haze as the rays give way

“Never forget but time to move ahead”

Tapping our feet, run to meet future days

Dreaming away of tomorrows we made

No going back, we’re moving to that world ahead

“Change it knowing you’re not alone”

“But know deep down, it’s over now”

“Our secret place, our final page”

Lost as we were and what we found

We’ll tell this story again

The lonely kids will take a stand

Make up their minds and make a plan

Day after day they turn the page

“We’ll meet again someday”

“Refreshing, isn’t it?” we say

A summer sky as clear as day

Let’s breathe the air, try not to cry

It’s time to say our goodbyes

A secret place for me and you

We laughed away the Summertime blues

“Remember every page somewhere”

“and we might meet” So I will draw it again

Day after day
