Summer Moved On

Summer moved on
And the way it goes, you can't tag along
Honey moved out
And the way it went Leaves no doubt

Friendships move on
Until the day you can't get along
Handshakes unfold
And the way it goes, no one knows

Moments will pass
In the morning light I found out
Reasons can't last
So there's just one thing left to ask

Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

Reasons can't last
And there's just one thing
Left to ask

Stay, don't just walk away
And leave me another day
A day just like today
Stay, don't just walk away
With nobody else around

Summer moved on

a-ha - Summer Moved On

/ Our lips were for each other and our eyes were full of dreams. We knew everything of travel and we knew nothing of loss. Ours was a world of eternal summer, until the autumn came. /

The time has come to let the summer go, like a small handmade paper boat on the will of a swift never-ending current. And everything what's left is to watch how the endless river, sparkling in the rays of the setting sun, swiftly carrying him away, while taking away so many things that I wouldn't never wish to let go...

It seems that just recently I welcomed the summer, and now it has come to an end... Summer, this sunny, joyful, carefree time, like no other shows how short and fleeting our life is. And maybe in fact I'm not really shedding my tears for the summer that have gone, but for one another stage of my life left behind. For incredible events that will never happen again, for the feelings that will never return, for a friendship that will never be the same as it once was, for the overwhelming power of the first impressions and emotions that will never be as strong and bright as they were when I felt them at the first time.

But there's nothing I can change, so I will quietly watch until this small boat disappears over the horizon, dissolves in the haze of the twilight, carriyng the part of me away... And the sadness and loneliness of this moment I will share with this incredible song, probably one of the most beautiful songs ever written to illuminate this world with their existence.

And I don't know what else I can say, besides what was already saying... So I'll just say: "Farewell, I'll never forget you...". And I will leave here a few epitaphs that could be left on a tombstone with the inscription "Just another summer passed away". I will see you in my memories and look for you in my dreams.

“All in all, it was a never-to-be-forgotten summer - one of those summers which come seldom into any life, but leave a rich heritage of beautiful memories in their going - one of those summers which, in a fortunate combination of delightful weather, delightful friends and delightful doing, come as near to perfection as anything can come in this world.”

"Oh, magical summer time, It can make you happy or blue something that leaves one's heart reeling, Looking for that feeling every single day...”

“I have only to break into the tightness of a strawberry, and I see summer – its dust and lowering skies.”

“Perhaps it is always summer, in the place where we are young.”
