The Girls In Their Summer Dresses

I remember summer morning

Dawning light and bright and gay

And the girls in their summer dresses

Walking, walking on their way

I remember distant laughter

Afternoons of past julys

And the girls in their summer dresses

With their secret smiling eyes

Tender arms so smooth and slender

Downy and brown from sunlit days

Wrapped in evening silvery splendor

Resting on tables in dim cafs

I remember midsummer night times

Midsummer night dreams i recall

But the girls in their summer dresses

I remember most of all

I remember sad september

Dying summers brave display

And one sweet girl in her summer dress

Who softly swiftly slipped away
