"1967"
Gently she said, “I cannot be your flame”She had to go away and sigh about the sorrow of streams and what will beI can’t revive her anywhere else but here
Words don’t appear to availI can’t explain her at allMusic’s the only way there
I tend to her summer of love all of my days
One day I was lonesome, feeling lost in summer airThe usual kind of separation had exposed my many thoughts and words to sheer despairI was so lonesome when she afforded me her smile
And though at first I criedAnd though her flight was severe The music she gave was so clear
I tend to her summer of love all of my daysI tend to her summer of loveall her garden flowers,all her dreams and shadows
I will keep dancing I swearSinging the song of her nameWinter is always so near
I tend to her summer of love all of my daysI tend to her summer of loveall her garden flowersall her dreams and shadowsall her garden flowersall her dreams and shadows
