AS GENTLE AS A SUMMER'S DAY
(Lyrics by Neil Sedaka)
Music: Schumann - Traumerei
As gentle as a summer's day
And as lovely as the petals of a sweet bouquet,
The falling of a misty rain,
A tender memory that conjures up my thoughts of
you.
The quiet rustling of the trees
Is the thing that makes me thankful there are
days like these.
And you and I will hand-in-hand
Begin to walk the world together
In our private wonderland.
To view these pictures on a screen,
To reflect these flickering shadows that are like
a dream.
Sometimes I think this all unreal
And like a photograph that fades away our love
may die.
So we must make the time stand still,
We must savour every moment, as I know we will,
Then you and I will stay the same
Just like the images suspended
That are frozen in a frame.
So we must make the time stand still,
We must savour every moment, as I know we will,
Then you and I will stay the same
Just like the images suspended
That are frozen in a frame.
