In another younger day I could dream the time away
In the universe inside my room
And the world was really mine from June to September
And if that wasn't really so I was lucky not to know
And I was lucky not to wonder why
'Cause summertime is all that I remember
A summer fly was buzzin' every night
When I was young
In the gentle world my childlike senses knew
When the world was just my cousin
And the wind was just the dawn
The voice my lonely moments listened to
And I look at me today all my dreams have gone away
And I'm where I never thought I'd be
Seein' things I never thought I'd see happening to me
And I lie awake at night till the darkness goes to
light
Hearin' voices callin' out my name
Dronin' over and again the same message to me
Cryin' who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's
your baby now?
Who wakes up at night to pull you in?
Whoa, it don't matter, you’d just make her lonely
anyhow
Don't know why you even try to win
