lyrics

The Ode Farewell


Summer,

I reminisce back to that “Golden Time of Day” when I fell in love with your essence, my soul sister. You were product of “The Miseducation of the Negro” and a collection of “Songs in the Key of Life”, a grade ahead of Lauryn Hill. Add a pinch of “Brown Sugar” and the soul of our ancestors, but you were hurt…a beautiful mess. ‘Cause Winter had broken your heart too. But you had quickly learned that there “Ain’t No Love In The Heart Of The City.” You were “Like Water For Chocolate,” a “College Dropout,” a caterpillar that had built her cocoon on the “Rose That Grew From Concrete.” “Hey There Lonely Girl”…I understand that it’s “Human Nature” to cry but dry your eyes because I got you. I promise. I promise that I always got you…always “until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky or the ocean covers every mountain high.” I always got you “until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea or until we dream of life and life becomes a dream.” Trust and believe I always got you. On my life, that’s word to Stevie Wonder. So know that, even when I leave or when the seasons change again, as they always do, my heart is forever with you. My heart is forever yours. My heart is forever yours.

So until we meet again,

Love
