Lying by the water's edge
Sunlight reflections on her skin
She dozes off,
Hidden under her hair
She smells the river and the figs
She's not like all the other girls
She smiles
And you fall in love
But when
Autumn comes
You leave
And she stays
You resume your life,
You forget her
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
She becomes indifferent to you
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
She becomes indifferent to you
You were still kissing her yesterday
Kisses all over her body
Rolled
Up in a hammock
Happy in your vacation home
Hours spent in silence
Or lulled
By the song of the cicadas
But when
Autumn comes
You leave
And she stays
You resume your life,
You forget her
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
She becomes indifferent to you
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
She becomes indifferent to you
Next summer she will find
Someone else
Who will leave far away like
All the others
Because when
Autumn comes
They leave
And she stays
They resume their lives,
They forget her,
She, she stays
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
She becomes indifferent
She's the summer girl
A fleeting love
When the sun disappears
No one stays for her
