Summer Lyrics by Kansas

The Prelude Implicit

2016

When we think back to what we shared
Well, it takes us to a time so long ago, we still remember
We weren't making any plans
And our future lay in diagrams
Beyond that winding highway

How were we supposed to know
That our time would come and go so fast
And we'd be racing in time

We'll never forget all the things that we shared
The way that we felt as we stood there
The paths that we chose left us distant and free
But we'll never forget that summer
We'll never forget that summer

We reflect as time has passed
We could never let ourselves forget the time we spent together
We held magic in our hands
And our hopes became as one
The lessons learned will last forever

Painful but we all moved on
And the memories kept us strong
And we just tried to ride out the winter

We'll never forget all the things that we shared
The way that we felt as we stood there
The paths that we chose left us distant and free
But we'll never forget that summer
We'll never forget that summer
Oh yeah!

Painful but we all moved on
And the memories kept us strong
And we just tried to ride out the winter

We'll never forget all the things that we shared
The way that we felt as we stood there
The paths that we chose left us distant and free
But we'll never forget that summer
I'll never forget that summer
