The Summer smiles,
|
The Summer knows,
|
And unashamed she sheds her clothes
|
The Summer smoothes the restless sky,
|
And lovingly she warms the sand on which you lie
|
|
The Summer knows,
|
The Summer's wise,
|
She sees the doubts within your eyes,
|
And so she takes her Summertime,
|
Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger,
|
Twists the world 'round her Summer finger -
|
Lets you see the wonder of it all
|
|
And if you've learned your lesson well
|
There's little more for her to tell,
|
One last caress, it's time to dress for Fall
|
|
INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE
|
|
And if you've learned your lesson well
|
There's little more for her to tell,
|
One last caress, it's time to dress for Fall
|
