Summer Breeze
I Know What You Did Last Summer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See the curtains hangin' in the window
In the evening on a friday night
A little light-a-shinin' through the window
Lets me know everything's all right

Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind
See the paper layin' on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the door step
Through the screen and across the floor

Sweet days of summer - the jasmine's in bloom
July dressed up and playing her tune
And I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waitin' there
Not a care in the world

See the smile awaitin in the kitchen
Food cookin' and the plates for two




Feel the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evening when the day is through

I was working at a movie theater when this came out. I was ushering opening night and remember walking down one of the aisles and stopping and watching this opening scene. To this day it makes me stop and think just how real things felt then. We will always miss you Peter.

@The Boogeyman How was life in the 90s?

The Boogeyman

@Brent Venable not to bad, I think a lot more original.

Brent Venable

@The Boogeyman I was born in 97. I wish I would've been born before that and been a teenager during the 90s. I heard it was a lot of fun. I grew up watching this movie and the other 90s originals. Its just today doesn't feel like how it use to

Because score music made by John Debney, that music reminds me Predators (2010) score soundtrack by him, it is very similar, it's like an attack.
