It was just like a dream when we first got together,
|
How our lips, like a match, lit a fire.
|
I knew, in my heart, it would not last forever,
|
|
But forever is long, long time.
|
|
What a day! What a life! I always love the weather,
|
When it’s too hot to think, and I try
|
A taste, just a sip; your sweet, sweet kiss
|
Like a nice, cold drink you’ve fortified.
|
|
Coo-coo coooo, coo-coo coooo,
|
Magic summertime!
|
|
It was just like I imagined, when we first met,
|
How our fingers became intertwined.
|
I knew, in my heart, that our chances were slim,
|
But a gambler never gambles to be wise.
|
|
Coo-coo coooo, coo-coo coooo,
|
Magic summertime!
|
|
Autumn is volatile and winter is cruel.
|
Spring can be tragical, but summertime is magical.
|
|
(There’s an 18-second instrumental segment here.)
|
|
It was just like a fairy tale, when we were introduced,
|
How our eyes, like a flash, filled with light.
|
And I knew, in my heart, we would both avoid the truth,
|
But our cover-up was heaven for a while.
|
|
Coo-coo coooo, coo-coo coooo,
|
Magic summertime!
|
|
Coo-coo coooo, coo-coo,
|
Magic summertime!
|
|
Coo-coo coooo, coo-coo,
|
Magic summertime!
