  1. Sweet Summer Nights
Share

As a part time teacher at Bowtown Music here in Calgary, I sometimes have nights closer to Christmas when students don’t show up due to other events they need to be at. One particular cold and snowy night I had some time in the studio to myself. I decided to spend some time playing around on my guitar and the chorus to Sweet Summer Nights was birthed. Contrary to some writing sessions, this one chorus was written in about 15 mins, as I was reminded of how much I wanted the summer back! It's not often that a song you write yourself will give you goosebumps but this one did! After a couple of weeks mulling over the idea of this simple love story I sat down and penned the rest of the song. As you listen you'll notice that, as I wrote this, I already had the music video in mind of where this would go. I am excited to now let you create your own story in your head as you listen to my debut single “Sweet Summer Nights!”

Sweet Summer Nights - Words and Music
By Craig SIlver

Walking up those stairs for the last time
I looked over to see you smile
Coming to late to school like I always did
I took my place beside you and thought about the good times

Mom said theres mail from the college
Gave me the look like something wasn't right
You called me crying telling me "How can we be apart I've loved you from the start!" Still we got
those ...

Sweet summer nights
Laying beside you underneath the stars, talking about the future
It's these wide open fields, running till we can't breath
And then we'd stop to soak up those sweet summer nights

I was living life and you were having fun
Moved into the city, I thought you met someone.

It's 4 years later now,
We kinda lost touch, but I never lost that feeling of those ...

Sweet summer nights
Laying beside you underneath the stars, talking about the future
It's these wide open fields, running till we can't breath
And then we'd stop to soak up those sweet summer nights

I jumped on the bus headed downtown,
thinking the whole way there
When I turned the corner I saw you,
Running with that long blonde hair
You just grabbed me and said, "Im never gonna let you go,
and I never forgot about those..."

Sweet summer nights
Laying beside you underneath the stars, talking about the future
It was those wide open fields, running till we couldn’t breath
And then we stopped to soak up those sweet summer nights
Ohh those sweet summer nights
We're never gonna be apart
