Lyrics for Song: Summer '68
Lyrics for Album: Atom Heart Mother [1970]
Would you like to say something before you leave
Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel
We said good-bye before we said hello
I hardly even like you, I shouldn't care at all
We met just six hours ago, the music was too loud
From your bed I gained a day and lost a bloody year
And I would like to know
How do you feel, how do you feel, how do you feel?
Not a single word was said, delights still without fears
Occasionally you showed a smile but what was the need
I felt the cold far too soon - the wind of '95
My friends are lying in the sun, I wish that I was there
Tomorrow brings another town and another girl like you
Have you time before you leave to greet another man
Just you let me know
How do you feel, how do you feel, how do you feel?
Good-bye to you
Charlotte Kringles too
I've had enough for one day

Summer '68
Released on Pink Floyd's 1970 album Atom Heart Mother, 'Summer '68' stands as a pivotal moment in the band's evolution from psychedelic rock to progressive art rock. Composed by Roger Waters and Richard Wright, the track features a distinctive, repetitive guitar riff that drives its hypnotic rhythm, marking a departure from the group's earlier sound. The song explores themes of restlessness and the passage of time, reflecting the anxieties of the late 1960s. Its inclusion on Atom Heart Mother, a concept album centered on a fictional day in the life of a man, underscores the band's growing ambition to create complex, narrative-driven works. 'Summer '68' remains a defining piece of the album's experimental landscape, showcasing Pink Floyd's early mastery of studio techniques and their ability to craft immersive sonic environments that would influence countless artists in the progressive rock genre. |
