Summer Solstice

Winter's coming around
It’s the beginning of summer now
Makes me wanna wonder how
Less than 365 suns took me from where I was to now
As last summer came to a close
I thought that it was game over
Little did I know i’d find what i was looking for
As soon as I had given up the ways of a soldier

It was the middle of winter then
Wishing I could just win her when
The wisher who was singing bout an infinite pacific
Has found that one fish and picked to stay with it
And as we begged for the warm air
She never knew the story of the storm therе
Funny how I never wanted it but now I’m proud
To havе the summer solstice come early this year
And all this time
I wondered why
She could never find that one guy
And if I
Would never hide by the trials of the tide
She would find me in a little less time

I used to walk these dunes
And look at the sky to talk to you
Looking for that one shining star to reflect my message off to you
And I knew you that knew me
You just never knew which dude was the true me
And I’m to blame
For not realizing I was made this way

For a purpose
And I heard this
The moment the waves had scratched the surface
I knew that I hurt you
Believing in me just wasn’t my virtue
But the planet turned on it axis
It did backflips for me
Now I have to practice
How to relax and tell our future family bout our story

And all this time
I wondered why
She could never find that one guy
And if I
Would never hide by the trials of the tide
She would find me in a little less time
The sun used to set itself alone but since the weather
Got better it now lets us watch it set itself together
As it holds the horizon, rewinding to December
Just close both your eyes, and I want you to remember

All the firsts that we shared, your purse and your hair
And how you were the one person to reverse what had scared
Me from ever loving someone, now let’s watch the sun set to
The time I came alive, when I first met you

I literally used to sit in my pity
And wondered if this was my own fault
Or if it was happening this way for a reason
I had questions, and the best of me was tested
As the water had tread my knees and
I felt this breeze that made me feel as though I wasn’t quite alone

Have you ever visited a vicinity like a city, or in this case the beach
Where at some point in your life this location
Had meant something much different to you?
And its incredible looking back
That you never thought of being there and feeling any different
Than the way you did then… or maybe that’s just me...
