[Verse 1]

Twenty-first of June, I was in my room when they called

Lovely afternoon turned into a wound in my bones

Days went by, a few, since life had crashed us through, we grow up too soon

When you said you’d be here, boy I had no clue


[Verse 2]

New midsummer moon; radiant, it’s true, but hidden

Endless days with you, pure secluded view of Heaven

Plucked another screw hanging down my portrait that you drew

But the hole in the wall remains and so do you


[Chorus]

I still remember

That еternal summer solstice

That forеver broken promise

I assumed you’d keep

'Till Death would steal my gaze from you

That day in the Fair

You said everything in you

Would never let you love again

If I wasn’t there


[Verse 3]

Pierced into my chest, unsuccessful quest; I feared it

Hoping for the best, leaving all the rest to spirits

Sunset to the west, late September test, we’re near October

And I can’t bear to think that summer’s almost over


[Chorus]

But I still remember

That eternal summer solstice

That forever broken promise

I assumed you’d keep

'Till Death would steal my gaze from you

That day in the Fair

You said everything in you

Would never let you love again

If I wasn’t there


[Post-Chorus]

(If I wasn’t there)

If I wasn’t there


[Bridge]

And when the equinox arrived

And it dismantled our bed of leaves

Fall turned into the cutting frozen knife of winter breeze

The second solstice of the year

Worse than my grief had ever been

Summer was over

And you'd been part of it


[Chorus]

‘Cause I still remember

That eternal summer solstice

That forever frozen promise

I assumed we’d keep

‘Till Death would steal my breath away from you

And that day in the Fair

You said everything in you

Would never let you love again

If I wasn’t there


[Outro]

That night

(You were there)

In the Fair

(You were there)

When I didn’t dare to say

How much I loved you yet again

You were there
