Shimmering waves are calling
Your smile comes back to me
The ocean breeze carries
A melody from long ago
Footsteps in the water
Splashing in the sunlit glow
Your voice gently opened
The summer in my heart
Every little moment
Became a work of art
Twilight colors fading slow
Wrapped around our shadows
Words I couldn’t say to you
Drifted where the tide goes
splash — the summer you were here
Still shines deep inside me
Reaching out, I feel you near
Like waves in distant memory
splash — a season we can’t repeat
Yet it paints my heart
With a bittersweet heat
Even through a T-shirt
I felt your warmth on me
Your shy, averted gaze
Your laugh so bright and free
Wind filled with grains of sand
Dancing through the air
Every single fragment
Still lingers everywhere
On the quiet midnight shore
Gentle waves keep time
Coming back then slipping away
A rhythm so divine
splash — the summer you were here
Still shines deep inside me
Your touch upon my fingertips
A burning, fading reverie
splash — though future shifts apart
I know with certainty
You once lived in my heart
Even if I wander far
Your name is in the tide
Waves awaken memories
I thought I left behind
splash — the summer you were here
Revives inside me once again
Bittersweet but beautiful
Still glowing like it did back then
splash — if fate allowed one more try
I’d hold you close
And never say goodbye
Into the waves, the seasons flow
But that summer lives
In an endless splash
