Liner Notes

A little dose of summertime #dreampop nostalgia. I felt like I needed to write something but wasn't sure what, and then I found this little ambient guitar loop on Logic and suddenly the words were right there. I had more ideas for production but it got late.

Lyrics

Out of nowhere
Just the light
Just the way it hits this time of year
Just right
Or the sound
Of your guitar
I close my eyes and I’m right back there
Where you are

Feels like forever, or yesterday
It makes me feel some kind of way

Chasing shadows
Of “might have been”
Would it be different if we
Did it all again?
Would the songs
Have come to be
Would you have realized that you
Belong with me

When I remember how we used to play
It makes me feel some kind of way

Some kind of way when I see that bright blue sky
And the wind carries whispers of time gone by
And the thunder and the lakefront all combine
In another life I’m left with your hand in mine

We were rockstars
So we said
But then we opted for the safer way
Instead
But I would sail
That sea once more
And we could all help bring the ship
Back to the shore

Is there an answer? Who can say
It makes me feel some kind of way

Lovely! The subtle build-up of instrumentation and vocals are really effective.

Limited instrumentation but your voice is the best instrument. very nice melody and harmonies.

This is so beautiful! Love the gentle instrumentation and build-up, alongside a beautiful vocal! Very peaceful and nostalgic. Excellent harmonies as well! Great work.

the backing track is definitely what the light this time of year would sound like if it had a sound

Very pretty! You created a dynamic and interesting song built around the loop and it keeps my interest the whole time.

You are blessed with such a tender soft vocal, and I know you have a lot of other voices, too. What an amazing gift. Your phrasing is great here, and I like the whole feel of it. Nice "work." 😀

That loop is lovely, as are the vocals, and the "makes me feel some kind of way" hook of the two-line refrain... pure magic.
