See the curtains hanging in the window In the evening on a friday night A little light a-shining through the window Lets me know everything's all right Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowing through the jasmine in my mind See the paper laying on the sidewalk A little music from the house next door So I walk on up to the doorstep Through the screen and across the floor Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom July is dressed up, is playing her tune When I come home from a hard day's work And you're waiting there, not a care in the world See the smile a-waiting in the kitchen Food cooking and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold you In the evening when the day is through
