One Summer
Braithwaite Daryl Lyrics

Started out last night,
I began to remember my past experiences last night.

I was thinkin' of days gone by
I was reminiscing about the past.

Of the times I've had,
I was remembering the experiences I've had.

And the things that I've left behind
I was also reflecting on the things I have left behind.

Some change,
Some things change.

Some die,
Some things die.

Still we manage to survive
However, we still find a way to survive.

It's knowin' when and what to do
The key is to know what and when to act.

It's up to you
Ultimately, it is your responsibility to take action.

Don't know what's goin' on,
Though, sometimes we may not be sure of what's happening.

I can't wait 'til
I am eagerly waiting for something to happen.

One summer,
The upcoming summer season.

Will always remain
Will always be remembered.

Remember the way
Remember how things were.

Hauled down
Feeling down.

Turned around,
Situations have changed.

Find myself facin' the wall
I feel stuck and unable to make progress.

I think back to school,
I am reflecting on my school days.

It's all the same,
Things remain unchanged.

Slightly different rules
Though there may be minor differences.

Outside on your own,
Being alone in the outside world.

Watch yourself 'cause you're all alone
Being cautious because there's no one to rely on but yourself.

I know what's goin' on,
But, now I understand what's happening.

One summer,
The upcoming summer season.

Never the same
Things will never be the same again after this summer.

Drivin' down the beach in my car
Remembering a time when I was driving by the beach.

Another place,
A different location.

Same time,
Though at the same time.

Icky runs along a fine line
Another character named Icky is walking a thin line.

Down there,
In that place.

No chance,
With no opportunity.

He's trapped in a different romance
Icky is in love with someone else who may not love him back.

He's life a fait accompli,
Icky's life is inevitable.

He never did see
And he will never see.
