  1. Your long blonde hair and eyes of baby blue

  2. Bright colors never fading

  3. The blush of childhood on your downy cheek

  4. The days of hide-and-seek

  5. The secret places we arranged to be

  6. The things you felt but couldn't see

  7. The sandy footprints as you shyly fled

  8. Oh no now summer's gone away we are older

  1. Where have you been what have you done till now?

  2. You're a woman a woman tell me

  3. What do you mean that you're a woman at last?

  4. How many arms have been around you?

  5. Did they change you in the past?

  6. So what don't tell me you're moving too fast

  7. Do you remember tossed in waves of white?

  8. Green stones where water flows free?

  9. What color are your eyes speckled in light?

  10. I'll never ask you'll never tell me

  11. Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

  12. You were as pure as the innocence in me

  13. Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

  14. You were as pure as the innocence in me

  15. The bicycles

  16. We left abandoned on the top of the hill

    We left behind at the top of the hill

  17. Lying together under the trees

    Lying together beneath the trees

  18. Flowers the pages of your scrapbook fill

    Flowers fill the pages of your scrapbook, you see

  19. So happy in that summer breeze

  20. An awkward silence that you seem to fear

  21. A look i couldn't understand

    A look I couldn't quite comprehend

  22. The flowers falling as i draw near

  23. Oh no don't hold me back don't raise your hand

  24. Where have you been what have you done till now?

  25. You're a woman a woman tell me

  26. What do you mean that you're a woman at last?

  27. How many arms have been around you?

  28. Did they change you in the past?

  29. So what don't tell me you're moving too fast

  30. Can you recall the waves and summer skies?

  31. The spray from surfing in the sea?

  32. What light flickers deep in your eyes?

  33. Is the flame still burning? I can't see

  34. Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

  35. You were as pure as the innocence in me

  36. Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

  37. You were as pure as the innocence in me

  38. When the bright rays of the morning sun burst into the night

  39. The early day breaks over us with clear warm light

  40. The shadows and the phantoms of the dark turn into trees and blossoms

  41. Truth once more rejects the lies

  42. And love becomes the light that's shining still in your eyes

The Sun Song

Your long blonde hair and eyes of baby blue

Bright colors never fading

The blush of childhood on your downy cheek

The days of hide-and-seek

The secret places we arranged to be

The things you felt but couldn't see

The sandy footprints as you shyly fled

Oh no now summer's gone away we are older

Where have you been what have you done till now?

You're a woman a woman tell me

What do you mean that you're a woman at last?

How many arms have been around you?

Did they change you in the past?

So what don't tell me you're moving too fast

Do you remember tossed in waves of white?

Green stones where water flows free?

What color are your eyes speckled in light?

I'll never ask you'll never tell me

Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

You were as pure as the innocence in me

Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

You were as pure as the innocence in me

The bicycles

We left abandoned on the top of the hill

We left behind at the top of the hill

Lying together under the trees

Lying together beneath the trees

Flowers the pages of your scrapbook fill

Flowers fill the pages of your scrapbook, you see

So happy in that summer breeze

An awkward silence that you seem to fear

A look i couldn't understand

A look I couldn't quite comprehend

The flowers falling as i draw near

Oh no don't hold me back don't raise your hand

Where have you been what have you done till now?

You're a woman a woman tell me

What do you mean that you're a woman at last?

How many arms have been around you?

Did they change you in the past?

So what don't tell me you're moving too fast

Can you recall the waves and summer skies?

The spray from surfing in the sea?

What light flickers deep in your eyes?

Is the flame still burning? I can't see

Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

You were as pure as the innocence in me

Oh sad old ocean sad old ocean jaded sea

You were as pure as the innocence in me

When the bright rays of the morning sun burst into the night

The early day breaks over us with clear warm light

The shadows and the phantoms of the dark turn into trees and blossoms

Truth once more rejects the lies

And love becomes the light that's shining still in your eyes
