作词 : Campbell When I was a girl, I dreamt of dancing I dreamt of many things the heart could hold I'd nurse my doll, would love and care for him Would breathe life into him For I believed The world was grand with many precious things Fine air, such precious things It was my world The wind would blow wild with imaginings I was so happy in my little world For the days were long in the summertime With the sweetest taste in the summertime There were secrets made in the summertime There was magic... Now I have grown and life is kind to me I have some misery but don't we all? Our path is so long that many lose their way Longing with everyday for what went wrong? For the days were long in the summertime With the sweetest taste in the summertime There were secrets made in the summertime There was magic... Below the sky, lost children find their way Weaving through life's highway through joy, through pain When summer has gone darkness can swallow you And happy times once new Will fade to grey Yet, if my dreams were to all burn today I wouldn't run away, call me a fool For I believe And if I never see If it's denied to me, quite lost I'd say Oh the days were long in the summertime With the sweetest taste in the summertime There were secrets made in the summertime There was magic... Oh the days were long in the summertime With the sweetest taste in the summertime There were secrets made in the summertime There was magic
