Sons Of Summer Lyrics
(Billy Mernit)It makes me smileTo think of what we dreamed ofWhere are those sons of summer nowWith their wild-haired women in theirpatchwork gownsWho could laugh the lights awayNights on the beach and bayThe course on farmsAnd the course in the barSweet smokin' in the back of the carAlways the first time shines to last like a morning starLike a morning starIt's been a while since the last time we were dancingWhere are those sons of summer nowWith their long-limber ladies who all knew howTo chase the blues awayI've got the blues todayYour ivy days and your clubhouse waysWine mug nights when the music playedLove that is real will not fade away like a morning starWhere are those sons of summer nowThe winter has comeAnd you don't know how to turn yourDreams into coalYour books won't hold youThe woods get coldAnd I feel too oldI begin to question your schoolboy soulClever remarks that once won my heartWhen the fire won't light they lose their sparkAnd I can't help but get a little bit bluethinking about the precious nothing weOnce knew
