Summer Wind Lyrics



The summer wind came blowing 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 sweethearts and the summer wind



Like painted kites, those days and nights they went

flying by

The world was new, beneath a 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 fick-le friend, the summer wind



The summer wind

One summer wind

Summer wind
