My Summer Love

Don't lock your heart as Autumn beckons Afraid youth fades as the leaves turn brown Beauty is more than the eyes behold Beauty is each moment together we stole Wrap my heart around your finger A young man at your feet I linger What happens happens love cannot be define I was always yours you were never mine Was I just a fling to pass those summer days My summer love a young heart can't erase The nights are longer and the days feel cold My smile alone can't stop your dread of old You told me to go but I would not leave You had your fill I just started my need In the night you shied away But every dawn your love still stays The emptiness I always feel To new loves it slowly kills I think of her of so long ago Was she right to let me go I had so much to give my first love She took for her what was enough So many springs so many new loves But never the same as I felt once of I think of you when the leaves turn brown Did you ever find the love I thought we found
