It's a simple scene, we were just eighteen
Excited and scared of what lies ahead of us
And after dark, we'd be in North Beach Park
Debating Star Wars, or life after death and just
Sitting, and laughing, and loving where we were
Kissing, and crying. That's when we heard
There were cicadas, there were cicadas in the air
Yes, there were cicadas, there were cicadas in the air
Hmm, there were cicadas, there were cicadas in the air
That summer, that summer, that summer
There were cicadas, there were cicadas in the air
Yes, their sound was music. It blew with wind through our hair
There were cicadas, there were cicadas in the air
That summer, God I love that summer
I left for Auburn; she went to LSU
We kept in touch, but more and more, less and less
We came back to Fairhope in early June
Completely changed, but we were at rest in just
Sitting, and laughing, and wondering who we were
I leaned in to kiss her, she turned, and I heard
There were no cicadas, there were no cicadas in the trees
No, there was only silence and the change you could hear in between
There were no cicadas, there were no cicadas in the trees
That summer, that summer, that summer, but I knew
There would be cicadas, there would be cicadas in the air
Their song would come back to us, fill the feelings that were no longer there
There'd be cicadas, there would be cicadas in the air
Next summer, every summer, all summer
But the years pass by and the seasons turn
Cicadas die, and new songs are learned
I wondered why the things that were
Won't stay
We met last week at our high school reunion
Five long years, that went by in a flash
We grabbed a drink and snuck off to the park
We told our stories and shared our pasts, and just
Sat there, remembering the kids that we once were
Her hand touched my hand, she smiled, and I heard
There were cicadas, there were cicadas all around
Their song has come back to us, shook our hearts while it shook the ground
There were cicadas, there were cicadas all around
That summer, that summer, that summer. And I knew
There would be cicadas, there would be cicadas in the air
Their song takes time to grow, just like ours. The night is full when it's there
There are cicadas, there are cicadas in the air
This summer, in between these lovers
There are cicadas, there are cicadas in the air
There are cicadas, there are cicadas everywhere
There are cicadas, there are cicadas in the air
This summer, This summer this summer
