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
