"Summer" is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins written by James Iha. It was released as a B-side on the "Perfect" single in 1998, and as a US promotional cassette in December of that same year.[1] It later appeared on Rarities and B-Sides, and an instrumental version was released on the 2014 reissue of Adore.
in the summer i can breathe
i don't need a single thing
and all the love you give
is so sweet
in the winter i can read
all those books you gave to me
and all the words of faith
are bound to waste
worn and torn from the outside
a love that's strong every time
still you vanish in the night
hey love
hey love
hey love
jack and rosemary
said love will calm their hearts
never any moment
still devout
a child that can change
i blessed on the stage
i lost the changes
we give each day
worn and torn from the outside
a child gets born it's divine
a love that's strong every time
do you feel anything
can you explain
if i change
oooh oooh
worn and torn from the outside
a love that's strong as the tides
and still you vanish in the night
hey love
hey love (well come on darling)
hey love (well come on feel)
