The summer wind came blowin' in
From across the sea
It lingered there to touch your hair
And walk with me
All summer long we sang a song
And then we strolled that golden sand
Two sweathearts
And the summer wind
Like painted kites
Those days and nights, they went flyin' by
The world was new
Beneath the blue umbrella sky
Then softer than a piper man
One day it called to you
I lost you
I lost you to the summer wind
The autumn wind and the winter winds
They have come and gone
And still the days
Those lonely days, they go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies
Through nights that never end
My fickle friend
The summer wind
The summer wind
Warm summer wind
The summer wind
