All Those Summer Days

Now the Summer song has gone
And the apples from the tree
As I sit here all alone
I wonder if you think of me
I wonder if your heart is torn
Between the future and the past
Hoping new love will be born
Sad the old one couldn't last

Oh I loved you so much, yes, I loved you so much
Oh, I loved you all those Summer days
Oh I loved you so much, yes I loved you so much
Oh, I loved you for your pretty ways

In the once sweet evening air
Upon the grass now wet with dew
'Neath a shady tree now bare
There I said, "I love you"
And you said it back to me -
I looked into your shining face
We kissed, and in an ecstacy
You took me in your warm embrace

Oh, I loved you so much, yes I loved you so much
Yes, I loved you - and the taste of love was sweet
Oh I loved you so much, yes I loved you so much
Yes, I loved you and you made my life complete

Now the winter time has come
Our love has faded like the rose
Voices of the heart are dumb
The inner fire no longer glows
Of the time I spent with you
Only memories remain
But one thing is surely true
Summer will return again

Oh I loved you so much, yes, I loved you so much
Oh, I loved you, but that's all in the past
Oh I loved you so much, yes I loved you so much
Oh, I loved you, so sad it could not last (x2)
