I miss you.
I miss hot summer nights.
I miss the first time I heard this song and loved it, in the practice rooms behind the band room, when we were supposed to be playing piano, but instead we sometimes snuck out to the park instead and played hooky.  You played it for me, and even though I had heard it before, I loved it because you loved it.
And now, it embodies perfect summer nights.
All the people I've shared secrets with while the cicadas sang.
All the love I've felt while sitting outside under the summer sky.
All the breaths of muggy night air I've breathed.
This song embodies such beauty.
Such love.
Such quiet promises.
(I love you) it whispers.
(I love you)
