Lyrics Lyle Lovett

Lyle Lovett

Summer Wind

The summer wind

Came blowin' in from across the sea

It lingered there

To touch your hair and walk with me

All summer long

We sang a song and then we strolled on that golden sand

Two sweethearts

And the summer wind

Like painted kites

Those days and nights they went flyin' by

The world was new

Beneath a blue umbrella sky

Then softer than

A piper man one day it called to you

I lost you

I lost you to the summer wind

The autumn wind

And the winter wind they have come and gone

And still the days

Those lonely days that go on and on

And guess who sighs

His lullabies through nights that never end

My fickle friend

Summer wind, summer wind

Oh, summer wind, summer wind
