People come to see you
When you don't wake up
In the summertime
People come to see you
When you don't wake up
In the summertime
We get so high
We get so high
Why you sleeping in
On this lovely summer morning?
Sun it is shining
Oh it is shining
People come and tell me
It's a pretty dress
That I picked for you to wear
Come and ask me how your makeup looks so fresh
And the way they did your hair
They kiss your eyes
They kiss your eyes and touch your hand
And the lilac flowers laying by your feet
Remind me of those shoes you used to wear
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh
I go see you in the summertime
Don't know if you know I'm there
Bring you lots of flowers in the summertime
Picture flowers in your hair
I lay them down
Cover the ground
With the colors I remember that you loved
That summer
Back when we were twenty
When we were twenty
When we were twenty-one
