Thoughts gone astray
Bringing me back to yesterdays
Lost in the haze of memories
Time's got the best of them
I can still hear the cicadas
Singing in the trees
As if time were composing
A summer melody
The summer night
It was in August or July
We wore our yukata
And kissed among the passersby
Warmth of her skin
A gentle touch upon the cheek
And the sound of her voice
A summer melody
[Solo!]
The soft heartbreak
It was sometime around the end
Watching the swan boats in the lake
From a tiny bench
To think these days would be the seeds
Of a reverie
As if time were composing
A summer melody

"summer melody" was written in Brooklyn, NY while reminiscing about adolescent days in Japan. It's a reflection on how trivial moments -- and even heartbreaks -- can sweeten into treasured memories. It was recorded in Brooklyn and Tokyo.
