Atomic Pom - Maybe After Summer Lyrics

Palm trees reaching into the salty air, now
California sand underneath a galactic flame
The tides in motion reclaim the castle of sand, now
Everything changes, yet everything stays the same
Na na na na

You know the grass gives way to the beach and sand
And the ocean gives its way to land
Will you teach me the nature of change?
Cuz I don't want to be the same

When will I get her off my mind?
Maybe after summer
Yeah

Caught up in the riptide of my mistakes
Even a child outruns the ocean waves
Na na na na na

There's a wall of houses on the shore
Yeah, but no one lives there anymore
There's no point in looking at past mistakes
A backwards hat won't cast shade

When will I find my peace inside?
Maybe after summer
Yeah

California, please be good
Return me to my childhood
Strings of light hung from the trees
Replace the missing light in me
Light in me
Yeah

You know the grass gives way to the beach and sand
And the ocean gives its way to land
Will you teach me the nature of change?
Cuz I don't want to be the same
There's a wall of houses on the shore
Yeah, but no one lives there anymore
There's no point in looking at past mistakes
A backwards hat won't cast shade

When will I find that missing light?
Maybe after summer
Yeah
