Lyrics
Summer Skin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tonight trees part for the crescent moon
On a cool 3am
I'm driving, and every light is stopped on green
Unwavering, content
We…can we always be this free
I'm coasting; an empty road requires my thoughts
I'm in love and comply
How this short trip could inspire such sentiment
Escapes me and that's fine
We…can we always be this free
Listen to me cuz I swear there has got to be more to all of this
A prevalent essence that escapes the science we've learned
I'll remember to thank God for a night like this
My condition, so fragile, insignificant
And yet all that there is
Those before me, and the millions yet to come
Will live for love like this
We…can we always be this free
Listen to me cuz I swear there has got to be more to all of this
A prevalent essence that escapes the science we've learned
Life's too poetic to be systematically sound and defined
My summer skin is alive in the darkest of night
I'll remember, I must remember, to thank God for a night like this
