Lyrics
Words by Amrai Smith & Stan Smith
I long for the morning watching you waking
Sleepy smile on your face, what can you be thinking
And I know now looking at you
That the sun has just broken through
My days begin when I'm with you
It's the Summertime
So I move closer and hold you tightly
Feel your breath on my skin ever so slightly
There's no place that I'd rather be
than just here now, you and me
All lovers will I'm sure agree, it's Summertime
You make it Summertime
CHORUS Not a single cloud in the sky
Though it's winter I don't question why
It's like Summertime
You make it Summertime
With you and me it'll always be Summertime
In my mind I hear a choir of bird they're singing
Music so sweet like wedding bells ringing
There's all that magic in the air
Like all the sounds of a summer fair
My soul came alive with you by me there
In Summertime, you make it Summertime
CHORUS
I hear the wind and feel the rain
But it doesn't matter
When the snow falls once again
We'll be living just fine here in our Summertime
I long for the morning watching you waking
Sleepy smile on your face, what can you be thinking
And I know now looking at you
That the sun has just broken through
My days begin when I'm with you
It's the Summetime
