Story Behind The Song

I originally wrote this song for my brother, Tom, who loves the beaches, the ocean, and the night life. The beaches I refer to are along Santa Monica Bay in California.

Lyrics

I miss the wind and the water
The days are getting warmer now
Days of summer,
I'm gonna write you a letter
It'll never get to you in this kind of weather.

Oh, she has golden hair
And she dances with the sun
Like she doesn't even care.

Beaches, silver sandy beaches
You know the ocean well and all that it teaches,
Girls gather smiles on the sand
And they make time disappear
With the wave of a hand.

Oh, she has golden hair
And she dances with the sun
Like she doesn't even care.

Days turn to sleepless nights
Parties and apartments
Blue and yellow basement lights,
And your life is reflected in the bay
And it melts into the morning
Of another summer day.
Summer day, summer day, summer day.
