Odes To Nature, The Summer Nights Are Long
When the lilacs pink and purple
Spill their perfume in the air
When little feet line up to dangle
Over the lake under the sun's glare
The thought of you love
Makes the summer nights seem long
When the path becomes a puddle
Because the rain fell in big drops
When little feet splash in and waddle
In the water bare or in flip-flops
The scent of jasmine
Makes the summer nights seem long
Oh, the summer nights are long
The sun don't seem to disappear
The blackbirds sing on and on
How I need you near
In fact I want you here
I want you here
When strawberries red and ripened
Adorn the street stalls everywhere
When little feet dance in the garden
A crown of daisies in their hair
Hold my hand and keep it there
Say you will stay with me all summer long
Oh, the summer nights are long
The sun don't seem to disappear
The blackbirds sing on and on
How I need you near
In fact I want you here
I want you here
Spill their perfume in the air
When little feet line up to dangle
Over the lake under the sun's glare
The thought of you love
Makes the summer nights seem long
When the path becomes a puddle
Because the rain fell in big drops
When little feet splash in and waddle
In the water bare or in flip-flops
The scent of jasmine
Makes the summer nights seem long
Oh, the summer nights are long
The sun don't seem to disappear
The blackbirds sing on and on
How I need you near
In fact I want you here
I want you here
When strawberries red and ripened
Adorn the street stalls everywhere
When little feet dance in the garden
A crown of daisies in their hair
Hold my hand and keep it there
Say you will stay with me all summer long
Oh, the summer nights are long
The sun don't seem to disappear
The blackbirds sing on and on
How I need you near
In fact I want you here
I want you here
