Summertime Songtext
von Paul Overstreet
Summertime Songtext
A warm breeze is blowing off the Caribbean
I′m loving all of you that I've been seeing
Sun shining on the water, blue as the sky above
Waist deep in the ocean, over my head in love
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
I can′t help believing this is what God had in mind
When He made the summertime
On this stretch of beach no one's in sight
Now I guess I know what paradise feels like
We can spread our blanket 'neath that casuarina tree
And love can light a torch and we can do what we please
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
I can′t help believing this is what God had in mind
When He made the summertime
Oh, don′t the days get long
And the sunsets burn so strong
And the nights were made for lovers holding on
Your skin is brown and so are your eyes
Your hair as dark as the midnight skies
Your kiss is sweeter than honey from the hive
Yeah, I wish we could stay here for the rest of our lives
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
Can't help believing this is what the Lord had in mind
When He made the summertime
Mmm, when He made the summertime
I′m loving all of you that I've been seeing
Sun shining on the water, blue as the sky above
Waist deep in the ocean, over my head in love
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
I can′t help believing this is what God had in mind
When He made the summertime
On this stretch of beach no one's in sight
Now I guess I know what paradise feels like
We can spread our blanket 'neath that casuarina tree
And love can light a torch and we can do what we please
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
I can′t help believing this is what God had in mind
When He made the summertime
Oh, don′t the days get long
And the sunsets burn so strong
And the nights were made for lovers holding on
Your skin is brown and so are your eyes
Your hair as dark as the midnight skies
Your kiss is sweeter than honey from the hive
Yeah, I wish we could stay here for the rest of our lives
Summertime (Summertime)
Summertime (Summertime)
Can't help believing this is what the Lord had in mind
When He made the summertime
Mmm, when He made the summertime
