Name: summer of love
Duration: P00H02M41S
Description: I wrote this song about a rocky patch I was going through with a girl I was dating. What was interesting was that everyone around me was finding a partner while I was losing mine. One day, I came up with the line "the summer of love turns into the fall of despair," and the song was built off of that.

I wrote this song about a rocky patch I was going through with a girl I was dating. What was interesting was that everyone around me was finding a partner while I was losing mine.

lyrics

This summer, everybody's falling in love,
And I thought that I was a lucky one,
But it turns out that I was wrong.
I spoke too soon, and now you're gone.

The summer of love turns into the fall of despair.
I thought I was safe, but then you took me there.
The summer of love turns into the winter of hate.
I thought I was free, but you caught me at the gate.

This summer, everyone's falling in love,
And I thought that I was a lucky one,
But it turns out I was a fool
And you left me, how could fate be so cruel?

The summer of love turns into the fall of despair.
I thought I was safe, but then you took me there.
The summer of love turns into the winter of hate.
I thought I was free, but you caught me at the gate.

The summer of love turns into the fall of despair.
I thought I was safe, but then you took me there.
The summer of love turns into the winter of hate.
I thought I was free, but you caught me at the gate.
