Summer of Roses/December Day

[Part 1]

[Verse 1]

A short time I have to be with you my love

But a short time is better than no time you see

And I bring to you all my possessions

And would that you'd share them with me

[Verse 2]

I bring one springtime of robins

One springtime of robins to sing

And I bring you one summer of roses

One summer of roses I bring

And I bring you the dry leaves of autumn

Dry leaves will be helpful you know

To soften the fall of your snowflakes

When I bring you your winter of snow

[Part 2]

[Verse 1]

This looks like a December day

Looks like a time to remember day

And I remember a spring such a sweet tender thing

And love's summer college

Where the green leaves of knowledge

Were waiting to fall with the fall

And where September wine numbed a measure of time

Through the tears of October

Now November's over and this looks like a December day

This looks like a December day

It looks like we've come to the end of the way

[Verse 2]

And as my memories race back to loves eager beginning

Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending

The ending that won't go away

And as my memories race back to loves eager beginning

Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending

The ending that won't go away

And this looks like a December day
