SUMMER OF SONG
 

You're hoping for a break from the year you've had

But life picks up the pace before you get a chance

When what you thought would be the start of something new

Turns out to be a repeat of what you've been through

Whatever happened to the days when summer was for play?

​

When every single voice is saying what to do

How do you make the choice of who to listen to?

The ones who've seen it all because they've been around

Their word is valuable because you know it's sound

You don't want to lose faith but it's slipping away

​

But there was song

Whenever things went wrong there was always song

Words you needed to hear

That's music to my ears

We had song

Whenever things went wrong there was always song

Words you needed to hear

That's music to my ears

Days and weeks are long, and they can be hard

Without a song in your heart

​

They say you need to find joy in simple things

I'd say it's worth a try, so let's see what it brings

Sometimes you need the high, but sometimes all you want

Is a starry sky to sail away upon

Anything is possible in this mixed-up world

CHORUS

​

It is the season of the soul

Without a song it can feel like there's a bottomless hole

CHORUS
