Summer Wind

Music by Henry Mayer
Original German lyrics by Hans Bradkte
English lyrics by Johnny Mercer









The summer wind came blowing in across the sea
It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me
All summer long we sang a song and strolled the golden sand
Two sweethearts and the summer wind

Like painted kites the days and nights went flying by
The world was new beneath the blue umbrella sky
And softer than a piper man one day it called to you
I lost you to the summer wind

Now I'm alone I might have known, but who can guess
I'd hear a sound and turn around to emptiness
I'd run to see who can it be, that laughter on the stair
But who is there? The summer wind.


Performed by Perry Como
