Lyrics Madeleine Peyroux

Madeleine Peyroux

The Summer Wind

The summer wind

Came blowing in

From across the sea

It lingered there

So warm and fair

To walk with me

All summer long

We sang a song

And strolled on golden sand

Two sweethearts

And the summer wind

Like painted kites

Those days and nights

Went flyin by

The world was new

Beneath a blue

Umbrella sky

Then softer than

A piper man

One day it called to you

And I lost you

To the summer wind

The autumn wind

And the winter wind

Have come and gone

And still the days

Those lonely days

Go on and on

And guess who sighs her lullabies

Through nights that never end

My fickle friend

The summer wind

The summer wind
