Page 48 of I Like You Like That

I put my hands on the keyboard and begin to play the intro to a song I started writing a few weeks ago. It’s got a soulful vibe to it that I’ve never really tried before. Mom’s been playing a lot of Janis Joplin around the house, and it’s all that’s been on my mind lately.

As I play, Liam starts to hum in his deep voice. It’s a little off key, but I love the way it sounds. Once I finish the intro, it picks up a bit, and I start to sing along.

Sweet summer boy

With your eyes so full

You’ve got the look of a man

And the touch of a bull

You take what you want

You give all you’ve got

Sweet summer boy

I know how much you care

You love with a force

of a thousand volts

Your eyes show your soul

And your lips tell a tale

Sweet summer boy

You’re gonna go far

Sweet summer boy

Don’t let your dreams pass you by.

If you do, you’ll regret

All the time that you spent

Sitting alone with your heart on the fence.

Sweet summer boy

Your eyes full of joy

Take in life while you can

And go where you please

Sweet summer boy

You’re going to go far.

Sweet summer boy

Don’t forget me when you go.

Sweet summer boy
