Burning embers start to glow
The pictures soon will fade
Pictures that the flames have made
Your hazy, wistful face
Suddenly is gone without a trace
Reminiscing summer walks
Empty glances, moonlit talks
Promises that mean so much
Broken with a single touch
Passing fancies fly away
Painting shadows on the sunlit bay
Summer days I'll float downstream
Wondering where the day has been
Boats that sail away at night
Come the dawn
Have sailed far out of sight
Deserted evening warm and still
Strangers come and go at will
Driftwood on the silent shore
Laughter from an open door
Friendly faces once again
Come inside before it starts to rain
Summer days I'll float downstream
Wondering where the day has been
Boats that sail away at night
Come the dawn
Have sailed far out of sight
Deserted evening warm and still
Strangers come and go at will
Driftwood on the silent shore
Laughter from an open door
Friendly faces once again
Come inside before it starts to rain
The dancing flowers grow low Burning embers start to glow The pictures soon will fade Pictures that the flames have made Your hazy, wistful face Suddenly is gone without a trace Reminiscing summer walks Empty glances, moonlit talks Promises that mean so much Broken with a single touch Passing fancies fly away Painting shadows on the sunlit bay Summer days I'll float downstream Wondering where the day has been Boats that sail away at night Come the dawn Have sailed far out of sight Deserted evening warm and still Strangers come and go at will Driftwood on the silent shore Laughter from an open door Friendly faces once again Come inside before it starts to rain Summer days I'll float downstream Wondering where the day has been Boats that sail away at night Come the dawn Have sailed far out of sight Deserted evening warm and still Strangers come and go at will Driftwood on the silent shore Laughter from an open door Friendly faces once again Come inside before it starts to rain Explain Request ×
