Summertime 1908

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 03 Sep 2005

Sweetheart, sweetheart,
dry those eyes of blue,
I'll come back to you,
with a heart so true,
Springtime's coming,
birds will soon be humming
sweetest songs of love to you,
Dear heart, dear heart,
tell me why you sigh,
parting time is nigh,
I must say goodbye.
How I yearn and long for
my return to you my love,
with heart so true.

Summer time, summertime,
we will be together,
in sunny weather,
down the lane, once again,
all the world in rhyme;
Summertime, summertime,
wedding bells will chime,
all will be sunny,
peaches, cream and honey
in the Summertime.

Sweetheart, sweetheart,
in the twilight glow,
where the roses grow,
I will whisper low,
Loves sweet story told in all its glory
where the waters gently flow,
Dear heart, dear heart,
'neath the moonlit sky,
we must say goodbye,
night birds sing on high,
in the trees, they sing their melodies
and seem to know
I love you so.

Summer time, summertime,
we will be together,
in sunny weather,
down the lane, once again,
all the world in rhyme;
Summertime, summertime,
wedding bells will chime,
all will be sunny,
peaches, cream and honey
in the Summertime.
