Christmas in Summertime

/

about

Although we tend to associate the Christmas period with joy and happiness, it’s also a time for reflection, and remembrance of the people we have lost, held deep in our hearts.

In this particularly difficult year (2020), the sense of loss seems magnified and even more raw than usual.

No strangers to these emotions, Marissa Keltie and Caroline Gilmour, 'The Eves', both lost their fathers close to Christmas, inspiring them to write their timeless Christmas song, "Christmas in Summertime”.

The song displays a beautiful, evocative and heartfelt melody that swirls and showcases their ability to wear their emotions on their sleeves; connecting heart to heart with their ever-growing audience.

Yes, it’s a song about a great sense of loss, but it’s also a song about joy; a song about loving the people around you, every day, ever present.

lyrics

You should know it was hard
To watch you come undone
We could see you were fragile
Like fallen snow beneath the sun

Fading, slipping away
Trying, fighting to stay awake

I won't forget you
Cos you're in, you're in this heart of mine
I'll always remember, see your smile
Reminisce about the days gone by
Now we have Christmas in Summertime

You were gone Christmas Eve
And all we had were tears
Feeling small, we were helpless
I wish I had you here

Drifting, closing your eyes
Let go, time now to say goodbye

I won't forget you
Cos you're in, you're in this heart of mine
I'll always remember
See your smile
Reminisce about the days gone by
Now we have Christmas in Summertime


Fading, slipping away
Trying, fighting to stay awake

I won't forget you
Cos you're in, you're in this heart of mine
I'll always remember, see your smile
Reminisce about the days gone by
Now we have Christmas in Summertime
