Lyrics for (Summer Song)

Took a while, but I made it through If I could show you the hell I'd been to Kept climbing 'til one day I looked back Was so high, I couldn't think to land And in one moment I was blown away And there was nothing left that I could say or do Took a while, but I made it through If I could show you the hell I'd been to Lost the light, but then the sun was shining Couldn't hide it and I wasn't trying And all those people I thought knew me well After all that time, they couldn't tell How I lost my soul, was just a shell Just a fragment of myself There was nothing left that I could lose Took a while, but I made it through If I could show you the hell I'd been to Was I becoming what I had to be? Was that the truth I was supposed to see? I may have never found my way to you And all those things that I was made to feel It doesn't matter if they're right or real My heart was still splitting in two And all those summer days were like a dream Woke me from a restless sleep Made me quiet, had me weak And all the world and all the love Of all the world came rushing through
