You may ask me Why I'm singing such a sad tune It's because summer, it doesn't start until after June And you may ask me Why I'm singing such a sad song It's because spring, it last to long I'm not the kind to usally complain And in fact I like the rain But I want a love to last through summer yeah I want a real humdinger OK now Summer Summer, come And tell me Tell me, I'm not the only one Who's longing for something besides the sun And you may tell me What's yours will come to you That hope will be high, The fourth of July I'm not the kind to always wait around Waiting for the lost one to be found I want a firecracker I want a real lip-smacker OK now Summer, summer come And tell me, tell me I'm not the only one, who's longing for someting besides the sun Besides the sun
