| Lyrics: | Yesterday’s letters, a rusty tin Each crumpled page But here in the memories your ghost came in So clear the stage Now just a photograph We both looked so happy then The last recorded summer of you and me Remember November the air was cold Times were tough Whatever we never did what we’re told Then we grew up The years just fall away Leave me in this wonderland The last recorded summer of you and me And that was a long time ago Over and over the tide came in Walk in the sun Now yesterday’s letters a rusty tin That song is sung Here signed with “I love you” Boxed up for a rainy day The last recorded summer of you and me |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
