Summer of '42 (Edit)

What are the things you wanted

 The same as anyone

 Just a hand to hold a little

 After all is said and done

 And the days were long and open

 Cause I had a view of you

 The Summer of ’42

 When I was in love with you

 We counted stars above us

 We dreamed of Xanadu

 We’d sneak off to the desert

 The sand over your fancy shoes

 The first day that I met you

 I wrote down in my book

 I am in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I’m in love with you

 The days have gone asunder

 The chaos of the war

 Made men of everybody

 But our memories I adore

 We named our favorite sunsets

 But I remember very few

 The Summer of ’42

 When I was in love with you

 But years have turned to ages

 And I know you’ve someone new

 I looked for you with every breath

 A soldier wrecked with solitude

 I climbed up the highest mountain

 And I shouted to our view

 I was in love with you

 I was in love with you

 I was in love with you

 In love with you

 You…

 I am in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I’m in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I am in love with you

 I’m in love with you
