"The Summer Side Of Life" Lyrics

He came down through fields of green
On the summer side of life, his love was ripe
There were no illusions on the summer side of life
Only tenderness

And if you saw him now, you'd wonder why he would cry
The whole day long

There were young girls everywhere
On the summer side of life, they talked all night
To the young men that they knew on the summer side of life
Goin' off to fight

And if you saw them now, you'd wonder why they would cry
The whole day long

He came down through fields of green
On the summer side of life, he prayed all night
Then he walked into a house
Where love had been misplaced his chance to waste

And if you saw him now, you'd wonder why he would cry
The whole day long

And if you saw him now, you'd wonder why
And if you saw him now, you'd wonder why
And if you saw him now, you'd wonder why....
