Story Behind The Song

summer love

Song Description

young couple fall in love for the summer, and find it hard to say goodbye when the summer ends and they must part

Lyrics

ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS YOU

AT THE LAST MOMENT OF SUNLIGHT,
FROM OUR VIEW AT THE TOP OF THE HILL,
WE WATCHED THE SUN KISS THE OCEAN AN' WHISPER GOODNIGHT;
AND IN THAT MOMENT THE WHOLE WORLD STOOD STILL.

(CHORUS):
AND ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS YOU;
THE SUMMER WAS COMING TO AN END;
I COULDN'T BARE TO KNOW THAT YOU'D BE LEAVING,
AND I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN.

WE TALKED WELL INTO THE EVENING,
AS WE CUDDLED AT THE FIRST CHILL OF FALL;
TRYING SO HARD TO FIND A WAY TO SAY GOODBYE,
WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING AT ALL.

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
A SHIMMERING CURTAIN OF RED AN' GREEN
PASSED QUICKLY AND BRIGHTENED UP THE NIGHT;
AN OMEN, FOR SURE; OUR LOVE WOULD ENDURE,
THOUGH WE KNEW IT WAS ONLY NORTHERN LIGHTS.

(CHORUS)
ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS YOU;
THE SUMMER HAD COME TO AN END;
I COULDN'T BARE THE THOUGHT OF YOUR LEAVING;
AND I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN.
I KNOW..... I'LL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN.
