The sweet July sun
Shines through the air
Summer winds sweep the country
And wash away cares.
The water is clear
And this new day is bright
Everything is in place
And the world is just right.
Flip-flops and friendships,
Lemonade and the beach
Love is in the air
Not out of our reach.
So join hands with all people
In summers warm glow
Don’t let go of the yearning
Because summer will go.
And do what you have to,
While you still have the chance
Before love is removed
from a summer romance.
Before bright flowers fade
And memories are small
And our bright summer day
Turns into fall.
