Son of Summer

from Son of Summer by Ben Perdue

lyrics

I saw a picture of you today
And I knew I had forgotten
It was that girl that took me away
To a long since lost land of love lost long since
Where S.O.S.s in the sand gave way to hearts containing our names
Forever ago now blown away

And her hair was light with the love of summer
And I was the son of sunshine
When your eyes get grey with the cold of winter
I'll warm them back to blue with this love of mine.

I was yours to keep, but our souls are just escapists
fighting with our own bodies as they try to escape us.
These fights: reflections of within us
We turn to turmoil and forsake trust
What we should hold closest: the first thing we give up.

I was the son of summer looking for love from a moon's daughter.
I was the son of summer looking for love from a moon's daughter.
Oh, I was the son of summer looking for love, still looking for love.
