See the curtains hanging in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light shining through the window
Lets me know that every thing's all right


Summer breeze, well it makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, it makes me feel fine
Blowing through my making me feel-right
Making me feel, making me feel fine, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

See the paper laying on the sidewalk,
A little music from the house next door... who lives next door?
So I walk on up to the doorstep,
Through the screen and then across the floor


Summer breeze, well it makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, it makes me feel fine
Blowing through my making me feel-right
Making me feel, making me feel fine, makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

Oh, sweet days are summer, the jasmines in bloom (ladadaaa)
July is dressed up and playing a tune
And when I come ho-home, from a hard days work
And you re waiting there
Oh yes you re waiting there, without a care in the world

I see the smile a-waiting in the kitchen
a-Food a-cooking and a-plates a-there for two
You, I see the arms that reach out to hold me
In the evening when the day is through


Summer breeze, well it makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind
Summer breeze, it makes me feel fine
Blowing through my making me feel-right
Making me feel, making me feel fine, makes me feel right
Blowing through the jasmine in my
Blowing, a-blowing
Blowing through the jasmine in my
Blowing, a-blowing
Blowing through the jasmine in my
Blowing, a-blowing
Blowing through the jasmine in my
Blowing, a-blowing
a-blowing through the jasmine in my mind




This song starts the endorphins flowing in my brain. Perhaps because it reminds me of shopping in the sweet summertime. Specifically hitting all the sales at the local Abercrombie & Fitch & Pottery Barn. Oh how I loved shopping there when I lived close. During the summer of 2007, I frequented Washington Square often. My fiance & I were to be married soon & I dreamed of making our home look like a Pottery Barn catalogue. I would tear out pages & store them in a box for feature reference. I registered there as soon as was deemed appropriate. Our current home looks closer to an IKEA catalogue (The more affordable option.), but I can still dream, right? Maybe when the kids are older & stop leaving smudges all over the windows or stains on the couch.


So I posted the lyrics that go with the Json Mraz lyrics. I am posting both videos, so you can see the contrast.


And the original...
