lyrics

It was a wild summer when you were born
The streets were blazing in more ways than one
It was a righteous bummer to have to wait
I'd take my test then sit for five to ten days

There were a lot of people who had it worse
Know that you're lucky and so loved from the first
And everything was worth it to hold your hand
After all nothing ever goes as you planned

I was broken hearted
Nana's faith restarted
And we said, boy aren't we gonna love her
This wild summer

You were his first gift on his first Father's Day
My only brother he's a wonder we say
Your mother and your mother's mother were strong
When drives were distant and when nights grew long

We were six feet apart and
Eating meals in the garden
And we said, boy aren't we gonna love her
This wild summer

Someday we'll look back if we are lucky enough to
How through these dark days, we kept our gaze fixed on you
You may never understand but you can look back and wonder
That wild summer

This wild summer
