In another younger day I could dream the time away In the universe inside my room the world was really mine from June to September And if wasn't really so I was lucky not to know And was lucky not to wonder why 'cause summertime is all that I remember
A summer fly was buzzin' every night I was young In the gentle world my childlike senses knew And the world was my cousin And the wind was just the tongue In the voice my lonely moments listened to
And I look at me today all the dreams have gone away And I'm where I thought I'd be Seein' things I thought I'd see happen to me And I lie awake at night till the goes to light Hearin' voices callin' out my name Dronin' over and again the same message to me
Cryin' who's your partner, who's darlin', who's your baby now? Who wakes up at night to pull you in don't matter, you just make her lonely anyhow Don't know why you even try to win
