About the work
We were dancing in the golden light
barefoot hearts and endless nights
you said forever like it was true
like the sky belonged to me and you
Old songs playing from a broken car
we didn’t know we wouldn’t get this far
your laughter echoes down the shore
but I don’t hear it anymore
That summer we left behind
still lives somewhere in my mind
in every sunset, every flame
I whisper softly your name
we were young, we were wild
lost in love for a while
and though time pulled us apart
you never really left my heart
Photographs fade but feelings stay
like waves that never drift away
I tried to let you disappear
but somehow you’re still here
If I could go back just one night
hold you close under that light
I’d tell you don’t let go too soon
we were dancing with the moon
That summer we left behind
still burns across my mind
some loves don’t ever die
they just learn how to hide

Title Summer we left behind
We were dancing in the golden light
barefoot hearts and endless nights
you said forever like it was true
like the sky belonged to me and you
Old songs playing from a broken car
we didn’t know we wouldn’t get this far
your laughter echoes down the shore
but I don’t hear it anymore
That summer we left behind
still lives somewhere in my mind
in every sunset, every flame
I whisper softly your name
we were young, we were wild
lost in love for a while
and though time pulled us apart
you never really left my heart
Photographs fade but feelings stay
like waves that never drift away
I tried to let you disappear
but somehow you’re still here
If I could go back just one night
hold you close under that light
I’d tell you don’t let go too soon
we were dancing with the moon
That summer we left behind
still burns across my mind
some loves don’t ever die
they just learn how to hide
