I loved you, how I loved you
When the summer sun was hot!
Your tan a bronzing mantle,
Your smile tied me in a knot.
Other people lived and loved
But we seemed to be the first -
Blazing heat of summer love
We knew how to quench our thirst
But now the season's changed, love
And the sun is cooling down.
We'll soon smile and say goodbye;
Let's not end it with a frown.
I'm a roving vagabond
And one season's time is long.
You have my love - I have yours
But now autumn sings its song.
We will walk along in rhyme -
It just won't be together.
I love your alert blue eyes
But can't abide a tether
So let's kiss and say goodbye
With softness in our manner.
I love you, but life changes.
New season 's like a banner.
I loved you, how I loved you
With your kisses warm and sweet.
We were like a summer storm
As we flooded in the heat.
Let us not be sorrowful,
For these things of life can't change.
I'm a roamer; walk with me
'Til I reach the edge of range.
Our goodbyes must not be sad
For we had our golden time.
Give me a smile then hug me;
Summer's season was sublime.
