From the recording Save Your Love For Me
Lyrics
SUMMERTIME RETURN
Words & Music by Grayson Hugh
Way up in the sky
there's a moon over the sea
come the third Friday in June
she'll be comin' back to me
when the honeysuckle blooms
and that perfume fills the air
it comes through the open window
and my love she'll soon be here
Love it grows and changes
and unfolds like a fern
there's a love that lingers
like a burn
Summertime return
I remember when I met her
on that misty ocean day
when our lives were full of thunder
wondering if we'd leave or stay
and we hid from all our worries
and each day was like a wave
every night was safe in stillness
full of the love we said we'd save
Love is like the ocean
with tides my heart won’t learn
there's a love that lingers
like a burn
Summertime return
Last night I dreamt about her
we were walkin’ on the shore
now Summer’s back
and deep down I know
she ain’t comin’ back no more
Love it is just like a dream
for that place I yearn
there's a love that lingers
like a burn
Summertime return
