Lyrics
Summer love, no sooner here than over
Summer love, came to me from nowhere
What a love, sand and sea and laughter came
Cosy nights, holding hands together
Summer breezes blowing over heather
Oh! That moon, it was over far too soon
We fell in love, that is true, dear
I lost my head holding you near
There was no one could say that it was wrong
Autumn I find too cold
Winter, no one to hold
Spring comes much too late
Summer breezes bring good fate
Summer love, I just can’t wait
Summer love, no sooner here than over
Summer love, came to me from nowhere
What a love, sand and sea and laughter came
– – – – – –
Oh! my love, life and it’s attractions
Summer love, how we took the actions
No regrets, neither of us were to blame
Summer love, kisses were so easy
Stars above, I remember how you teased me
What a love! when you always called my name
We fell in love, that is true, dear
I lost my head holding you near
Such is life in summer sun, a summer song
