Lyrics:
SUMMER DREAM
I met this green eyed girl the other day
She was so fine she seemed to light the sky
And cause she looked like she was feeling blue
I held her hand and said I wrote this song for you

crs
I wanna swin in your ocean till the water runs dry
I wanna slide down your rainbow when its high in the sky
And watch the full moon as it gently slides by
You make me wanna dream with you
You make me wanna be with you
You get me so high when I think of you
Its like a walkin it the SUN
Its like a walkin in the SUNSHINE

We took a blanket to a sunny park
We had a picnic by a waterfall
I kissed her full lips as she looked at me
And told her how her beauty set me free
I said
crs
I wanna swin in your ocean till the water runs dry
I wanna slide down your rainbow when its high in the sky
And watch the full moon as it gently slides by
You make me wanna dream with you
You make me wanna be with you
You get me so high when I think of you
Its like a walkin it the SUN
Its like a walkin in the SUNSHINE

your red lips make me think of cherry trees
your green eyes take me to a sunny place
I`ll always be there when you call my name
To sing a song for you and brighten up your day
I`ll sing
crs
I wanna swin in your ocean till the water runs dry
I wanna slide down your rainbow when its high in the sky
And watch the full moon as it gently slides by
You make me wanna dream with you
You make me wanna be with you
You get me so high when I think of you
Its like a walkin it the SUN
Its like a walkin in the SUNSHINE

Great Lyrics &mdash 02/22/08 - 10:42:41 AM
Simply works. This tune is well constructed, sounds great as is, but could also be done totally big with rock band treatment.

I really would like to hear a version of this one with a macjams collab treatment, I'm sure you'd have some takers.

You got hit quality with this one.

I think your vocals work really well here. Love the lyrics and guitar work. I agree, it could be "big", but it's also great as is.

THANX BOYS &mdash 02/22/08 - 05:12:42 PM
for the encouraging words!!
a little story behind this one...I was listening to my backing vocals on Ocean Pride, (the higher range) and got to thinking about my music teacher, (FROM KINDERGARDEN GO FIGURE!!) and how she used to always get me to sing in the higer regesters, she always loved my high range...so here I am listening to ocean song over my morning coffee thinking I COULD sing at a higher range...with that I start looking out the window DEAMing of summer yet to come...anyhow I hope this one warms you up a little bit
the guitar in this song is a ,`FIRST ACT', toy guitar from walmart i bought this xmas for my son...he droped mine last night and broke a tuning key (its a fender) so the guitar sounds a bit like a ukayalale

VIDEO FOR THIS SONG &mdash 02/23/08 - 04:51:15 PM
I went to Flicker and downloaded a jpeg for every NOUN in the song, I spaced 90% of the pics at 5 seconds apart in the timeline and had to cut or drag a small few (like 5 to make it fit...not bad I guess for about 5 hrs work from the moment i picked up the pen and wrote the song to finishing the day with a video to boot...heres my problem I dont take the time to make it sound studio quality

anyhow heres the link for the video of summer dream...enjoy

All that the &mdash 02/23/08 - 05:12:45 PM
Others here said and I like your voice and the song a lot. It could do with a lot more volume adding to it, though.... I had to really up the volume on my speakers. Nice just simple as it is, but would be nice to with more accompaniment.... great lyrics, regards M

i can see &mdash 03/22/08 - 05:43:51 PM
why you want to pump this with the full treatment. Its catchy and original. This sounds fab on its own. My only nit would be your fine vocal sounds slightly muffled.

Great song! &mdash 03/23/08 - 04:50:36 PM
very original and catchy indeed!!! Resembles Jack Johnson... actually I think he would be jealous if he heard this one... :-) Great guitar playing... smooth! I ' discovered' your song from your collab post.. I bet you have already received lots of interested parties... in any case, I'm also willing to try to add to this song. I would be honored! Take a look at my two humble uploads on my profile... I'm not experienced on production and all but, again, would be honored to try some ideas on your song. All the best and keep these good ones coming!
