Bird Of The Summer Lyrics

You came with the season as the first swallow sang<br />
A brown headed stranger with a five letter name<br />
We planted our kisses where the wild berries grow<br />
My feet sprouted wings and I flew all the way home<br />
<br />
My cheeks red like fire engines racing<br />
Straight to the heat of your skin<br />
I know our days are numbered early bird of the summer<br />
You'll fly south just as the fall begins<br />
<br />
The leaves changed their color and the schoolyards were filled<br />
My coat with the patches barely keeps out the chill<br />
You sent me a postcard from a town out of state<br />
I wish it were warmer and I hope you're the same<br />
<br />

The fields where we wandered were golden<br />
Now only muddy my boots<br />
Now I know I should recover, you're a bird of the summer<br />
I was wrong to try and capture you<br />
<br />
Flight, flight<br />
<br />
[Incomprehensible] park by the lake<br />
[Incomprehensible]<br />
<br />
Gone is the pale hand of winter<br />
Here is the first flush of May<br />
And soon I will discover whether birds of the summer<br />
Fly in circles or just fly away

You came with the season as the first swallow sang<br />
A brown headed stranger with a five letter name<br />
We planted our kisses where the wild berries grow<br />
