I watched the Summer die
just like it does each year
on a beach alone
on a sunny day so clear
and I built a monument
a castle in the sand
after everyone else had
gone back to the drudge
of another long year planned.
And then I headed home
kicking through colored leaves
victims to fall’s cruel gravity
beneath half empty trees.
But I knew in my heart
Summer would come again
after the snows and rain
had run their course
like a long lost friend
Chorus-
Summer is much like love
it comes and it goes
bringing incredible warmth
to any lonely souls
but then the bitter cold
empties the limbs of those
who have to take their leaves
from love that decomposed.
A Fact Of Life I Suppose
All love is seasonal
it starts much like the Spring
bursting in two hearts filled
like flowers blossoming
and then the dreams two shared
are left to dissipate
beneath the frigid snows so cold
where love can’t hibernate.
But soon a summery smile
or eyes that are hungry
bring us a sweet reprise
as winter takes its leave,
curing all reasons to grieve
Curing all reasons to grieve
Soon enough you'll find
You'll love again someday
Hey ayyy ayyy ayyy ayyy ayyyyy!!!
you love again someday
