When I was younger than now I am, I liked swimming, so I swam,
|
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane, tarmac broken from sun,
|
Up the grass came, up willow I would climb to the top,
|
Hang and watch the water drop, from my feet to the river below,
|
Young strength finally waned, then I followed, I love that glow and now I know:
|
|
Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
|
Light her up, let her fill the room,
|
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
|
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.
|
|
Off to mugdley about the years end, I shout up: "let's have a swim!"
|
I expect all my friends to say "no", they agree so in we go!
|
I got a stinging nettle rash for it, but I'm so very happy that I did,
|
I never ever ask why, I don't care why, I just know that:
|
|
Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
|
Light her up, let her fill the room,
|
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
|
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.
|
|
When I was younger than now I am, I liked swimming, so I swam,
|
The townside of old Cinnamon Lane, tarmac broken from sun, up the grass came.
|
The winter evening that I came home, found out that my girl had gone!
|
My father's eye told of a place that he'd been,
|
Strong women play their own tune.
|
|
Summer's in bloom, Summer's in bloom,
|
Light her up, let her fill the room,
|
Speak no lie, Summer's in bloom,
|
Summer's in bloom, light her up, let her fill the room.
