Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The summer wind came blowin' in
From across the sea
And lingered there, so warm and fair
To walk with me
[Verse 2]
All summer long, we sang a song
And strolled on golden sand
Two sweethearts
And the summer wind
[Verse 3]
Like painted kites, those days and nights
Went flyin' by
The world was new, beneath a blue
Umbrella sky
[Verse 4]
Then softer than a piper man
One day it called to you
And I lost you
To the summer wind
[Verse 5]
The autumn wind and the winter wind
Have come and gone
And still those days, those lonely days
Go on and on
[Verse 6]
And guess who sighs her lullabies
Through nights that never end?
My fickle friend, the summer wind
[Verse 7]
The summer wind
