One Special Summer

The summertime of my soul Quickly sends chills down my spine In remembrance of passion We had that one year My heart races as I remember it We held each other tightly As we never wanted to let go We wanted this summer to last forever Everything was just right The nights were cool and starry Nothing kept us from being together It was always peaceful and bright We walked down the lover's paths Feeling close to one another As we strolled through gorgeous nature Creating an ambiance like no other We would overlook and faults we had Keeping true love alive at all times We had everything in the palm of our hands Being together allowed for big dreams We thought this summer would be just the start The beginning of a lifelong journey We thought as each day brought us closer We might just stay together forever Then the summer came to a close And autumn brought with it change We had to go our separate ways And the distance left us estranged No matter what we did To try to keep us together We could not keep the love we had Alive like we did that summer Soon we drifted apart Separated for many years All we had left Was the wonderful summer together The spectacular wonderful love So special in many ways It will live forever Deep within my soul
