about

Guy DeBreilly played lead guitar (and added a French cricket) and remastered this song.

lyrics

Excited children
Playing in the sand
Running and laughing
Buckets in their hands

Their parents smile
Hope for a while
That this moment will never pass

They know that summer
Even long summer
They know that summer will never last

Beautiful garden
So green in the sun
Old woman weeding
Knows the day is done

Her trowel is digging
Her heart is singing
Even as shadows creep on past

She knows that summer
Even long summer
She knows that summer will never last

We were young lovers
Hid behind the dune
Time seemed to stand still
When we met in June

August is fading
Seasons are changing
Who knew that life went by so fast

We know that summer
Even long summer
We know that summer will never last

Will never last
Will never last
