It was a summer day, a long hot summer day, not in '69. I met a girl on the beach with a tan of golden brown hair and long hair. We fell in love, she was a gift from the salty air. I couldn't imagine the day she would leave my life. Oh God, my love is like ice cream, The Summer sunshine melts it away. I'm so stupid, was it a dream? It's a bitter memory, Summer of love. Not only love, but everything I do has gone like this. Why's that? So many, many shitty things, I don't have the thing I really love. I say I don't mind, but I really just pretend not to care. Life is long, so I can't cry all the time. Oh God, my love is like ice cream, The Summer sunshine melts it away. I'm so stupid, was it a dream? It's a bitter memory, Summer of love. Summer of love, summer of love, summer of love... Summer of love, summer of love, summer of love...
