Summer Years
from Thank You for Today by Death Cab for Cutie
lyrics
Sometimes I wake at night
And watch the rain fall through the street lights
As you’re standing still in my mind
Fading out, waving goodbye
And I wonder where you are tonight
And if the one you’re with was a compromise
As we’re walking lines in parallel
That will never meet and it’s just as well
Sometimes I’m overcome
By every choice I couldn’t outrun
The junctions all disappear
You can’t double back to your summer years
And I wonder where you are tonight
And if the one you’re with was a compromise
As we’re walking lines in parallel
That will never meet and it’s just as well
And watch the rain fall through the street lights
As you’re standing still in my mind
Fading out, waving goodbye
And I wonder where you are tonight
And if the one you’re with was a compromise
As we’re walking lines in parallel
That will never meet and it’s just as well
Sometimes I’m overcome
By every choice I couldn’t outrun
The junctions all disappear
You can’t double back to your summer years
And I wonder where you are tonight
And if the one you’re with was a compromise
As we’re walking lines in parallel
That will never meet and it’s just as well

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time.
