lyrics & photographs, Twitter and Instagram.
Beautiful images lend a context for original lyrics, and form a trail to hear the song.
These summery, sunny shots were snapped in Oxford, and London.
Hazy summer days and lazy summer ways
About HAZY SUMMER DAYS
On summer days, when the heat is intense, time almost seems to stand still.
So many of my happiest memories are bathed in remembered sunshine, so I gathered some of them together in this song. And LCB Photography captures those moments perfectly with some images of her own.
There is a nod to Erik Satie in the middle, long suspended chords with a wandering melody. John Jansson at the piano, evokes a gentle, musing mood.
Melt our gold yesterday
Into today
Sing in praise of summer
The rays of summer
Cherries sunshine, laughter and wine
Gild my days in golden rays
Then we lay in the sunlight, by the murmuring stream
And long days stretched before us,
Promised lifetimes
Whispered low
Long ago
Set the world aside, let time just glide
Sing in praise of summer
The blaze of summer
Haze of summer days
Follow the
next trail
