Ray LaMontagne – For The Summer Lyrics 13 years ago
When I first heard this song, I fell in love with it. I sat down with my Taylor guitar and figured out the chords immediately. It spoke to me about my life so much. It took me back to the summer of 1974 that I spent falling in Love with my "first love". We parted ways a couple of years later in my Senior year of high school. I did not see her or speak to her for 35 years after that. Two years ago our lives came together again and we were married last summer.
