Summer of Love
© Simon Rushby and Julian Wilson 2006

She redefined her heart
To one of shining steel
I never changed at all
My love was always real

The words I wasted then
Like so much empty air
Come back to haunt me now
Because my heart is always there

In the summer of love.
The summer of love


And the summer of love
Is the one place I don’t cry
And the summer of love
Is the truth I can’t deny
And she never would say
What I did to change her mind


Back on the razor ride
The edge that never dulls
I sit uncomfortable
Before her pale blue eyes

Her calm indifference
It’s more than I can bear
I know I’m bein’ a fool
But my heart is always there

In the summer of love (x2)


And the summer of love
Is the one place I don’t cry
And the summer of love
Is the truth I can’t deny
And she never would say
What I did to change her mind

SOLO






Sweet memories that hurt
She’s forever close at hand
Mere years cannot destroy
What love decrees must stand

I really cannot see
Through the ache I always feel
A love that cannot be
Is a mountain over me

I will never forget
I’ll never never regret
And I’m livin’ there still yet

And the summer of love
Is the one place I don’t cry
And the summer of love
Is the truth I can’t deny

And the summer of love
Is the one place I don’t cry
And the summer of love
Is the truth I can’t deny

And she never would say
What I did to change her mind
