That summer

[Intro: fingerpicked acoustic guitar, slow and warm, no vocals] [Verse 1] That summer We gathered around the table Sat out in the yard Telling jokes, telling stories No one keeping track of time [Verse 2] Looked up and there was a full moon Moonlight spilled down Falling on every one of us Like a thin coat of silver [Verse 3] That summer We climbed up to the roof The stars right above our heads Too many to count [Verse 4] We talked about the secrets of the universe Talking and talking Someone fell asleep first No one woke him up The night just went deeper [Chorus] It feels like there have been so many summers But that loudest one Feels so far away now So far that only the moonlight Still rests on my shoulder [Bridge: piano only, very quiet] Maybe one day We'll all gather here again Maybe it's just a joke But I believe We'll gather there [Final Chorus: piano and guitar together] Still that same table Still that same yard The moon still the same moon We still us [Outro: fingerpicked guitar fading, soft humming] Gather there... Gather there...
