This is a new lyric. Still a work-in-progress. As always any comments or suggestions are welcome and appreciated

SUMMER DREAMS
Cattails sway in the cool bay breeze
While starlings swirl and dive
As the sun does a slow fade
In the soft twilight sky

Watchin’ pier lights in the distance
Nights of long French kisses
Slow dancin’ to the radio
‘Long the strand in the mist

Chorus:
But love’s a fleeting thing ‘round here
And it’s never what it seems
Hearts get caught up in the heat
And lose themselves in their summer dreams

Bridge:
Those romantic nights on the beach
Tanned young bodies intertwined
With the moon just out of reach
Like the love they hope they’ll find

Now the season’s come to an end
The boardwalk’s shuttin’ down
The last of the tourist traffic
Makes its way out of town

The scent of coconut lotion
Starts to fade on the wind
Til the first of June rolls around
When it all starts again

Chorus
