Summertime

-1-

We left in the morning
It was ever so cold
You lent me a blanket to wear

We headed down south
on the open road
We were going to Glastonbury Fair

Yeah we were going to Glastonbury Fair !

-

Oh, in the summertime
we were feeling so free

Oh, and I'd make you mine
You were my destiny
Is this my memory
or my fantasy ?

Later that night
as we sat round the fire
You played the guitar and we sang old songs

I passed you a drink
You said you were tired
but we danced till the new day began

Yes we danced till the new day began !

-

Oh, in the summertime
we were feeling so free

Oh, and I'd make you mine
You were my destiny
Is this my memory
or my fantasy ?

While your friends watched the band
from the back of the tent
we ran off to play with the clowns

From the top of the hill
I could see what you meant
but I couldn't see you come down

No I couldn't see you come down !

-

Oh, in the summertime
we were feeling so free

Oh, and I'd make you mine
You were my destiny
Is this my memory
or my fantasy ?

-

How would it be
if I'd never met you at all ?

Memories sometimes play games with me

You were the love that I never had
I don't even remember your name

I don't even remember your name

There were hippies and hustlers
and women in drag
chasing the dragons away

Walk round the stone circle
Don't you look back !
Watch how the children play

Yes watch how the children play !

-

Oh, in the summertime
we were feeling so free

Oh, and I'd make you mine
You were my destiny
Is this my memory
or my fantasy ?

-

How would it be
if I'd never met you at all ?

Memories sometimes play games with me

You were the love that I never had
I don't even remember your name

I don't even remember your name
I don't even remember your name
