about
Originally released on the album "Leap Of Faith" by Mint Biscuit (2020), this version recorded 2022.
A tale of Viking invasion, and although it may sound peaceful and pastoral, "and now we swim soft shades of shadow", there has actually been a bit of bloodthirsty pillaging going on "the victim's quote we shall not remember". Inspired by the Viking invasion of Holy Island.

lyrics
Summer Song
In a momentary lapse of reason
You changed the weather, changed the season
You sang out clear, it won’t be long
Until we hear our summer song
Past winter’s ruin we sailed our boats on
Until we reached tall reeds on the seashore
We knew our fear here did not belong
We sang out clear our summer song
And now we swim soft shades of shadow
The victim’s quote we shall not remember
The ships we sail will carry us on
We sing out clear our summer song
We sing out clear our summer song
We sing out clear our summer song
In a momentary lapse of reason
You changed the weather, changed the season
You sang out clear, it won’t be long
Until we hear our summer song
Past winter’s ruin we sailed our boats on
Until we reached tall reeds on the seashore
We knew our fear here did not belong
We sang out clear our summer song
And now we swim soft shades of shadow
The victim’s quote we shall not remember
The ships we sail will carry us on
We sing out clear our summer song
We sing out clear our summer song
We sing out clear our summer song
