Some Summers
Some summers flutter by
Some are hardly there at all
Some buzz past like busy bees
And some have an ant-like crawl
Some summers never come
And some seem to stay forever
I think summer’s a state of mind
And not about the weather
Some are hardly there at all
Some buzz past like busy bees
And some have an ant-like crawl
Some summers never come
And some seem to stay forever
I think summer’s a state of mind
And not about the weather
