Carly Paige’s “summer of nineteen” is included in her 2019 double-single release “indie pop post rock cinematic sometimes”. It tells the story of a summer love potentially turning into something stronger over a dreamy/nostalgic guitar-based melody.
Mom and Dad met in the summer of ‘81
Dead set at start of the things to come
I bet
They didn’t know back then
I bet
They didn’t know yet
Holding my hand like it’s something you’ve always done
Wondering if hello is a loaded gun
I guess
We just don’t know that yet
I guess
We just don’t know if we’ll
Look back
Saying oh my god
Oh - Oh my god
Look back
Saying it started in the summer of
’19
The summer, summer, summer of ’19
Are we running running, running for a daydream
Of the summer, summer, summer of ’19?
‘19
Butterfly effect from the way that you look at me
Dangerous, yeah baby don’t you think?
I bet
This is one a those moments
I bet
We just don’t know yet
Driving around, are the photos I take of you
For scrapbook pages I thought I’d never use?
I guess
We just don’t know that yet
I guess
We just don’t know if
We’ll look back
Saying oh my god
Oh - Oh my god
Look back
Saying it started in the summer of
’19
The summer, summer, summer of ’19
Are we running running for a daydream
Of the summer, summer, summer of ’19?
‘19
Maybe it’s not meant to last
Maybe we’re moving too fast
Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself, head of myself now
Maybe when fall comes along
Whatever we are will be gone
But maybe I’m getting ahead of myself, 'head of myself now, now
Ahead of myself now, now
But Mom and Dad met in the summer of ‘81
Dead set at start of the things to come
I bet
They didn’t know back then
I bet
’19
The summer, summer, summer of ’19
Are we running running for a daydream
Of the summer, summer, summer of ’19?
