Summer day

A song about finding yourself in times of change.

Liner Notes

I think this is a song about finding yourself in times of change.

Lyrics

First it came like the rain
On a summer day
Like when we were young

I was scared when it came
Kept at bay
'Cause the storm was so strong

Then I learned to understand
And listen and see
The signs all around

The world took me by the hand
And told me to go
Where heaven meets the ground

There are no reasons to be scared
You don't need to forget where you came from
When you travel down this path
In a long long long afternoon

Then it went like the sun
After countless hours
Of a long summer day

Setting slowly, painting colors
Touching hearts and emotions
That I dare not to say

I was new and reborn
I was here all along
That's what I found

Watching the sun
Finally resting
Where heaven meets the ground

There are no reasons to be scared
You don't need to forget where you came from
When you travel down this path
In a long long long afternoon

The verses are lovely. Maybe they shouldn't resolve back to the I chord?

Cool tune. I think the line "told me to go / Where heaven meets the ground" is key. Travel to the horizon? Travel somewhere that cannot actually be found? So I hear that it's a song about finding yourself, finding truth (that un-findable spot where heaven meets the ground). Enjoyed listening.
