Summer days at grandma's house laughter filled the air
You were tall and handsome didn't care but your smile was always there
Jokes and whispers all around our secret little space
You were a summer friend I was young but you left a trace
I prayed hard to guard my heart but your prayer was stronger still
Tried to forget you in a city far but you're in my thoughts at will
Oh summer's echo calling me back to you
Where love was just a shadow but now it's shining through
Tried to run tried to hide but your memory won't let go
In the dance of life you and I we found a love to show
Years went by our paths apart yet you stayed on my mind
Focused on becoming more leaving love behind
Riding on your motorbike at sunrise or sunset's glow
I invited you to the school ball our bond began to grow
I prayed hard to guard my heart but your prayer was stronger still
Tried to forget you in a city far but you're in my thoughts at will
Oh summer's echo calling me back to you
Where love was just a shadow but now it's shining through
Tried to run tried to hide but your memory won't let go
In the dance of life you and I we found a love to show
The day you planned to propose another girl had her chance
She tried to take your hand but we stuck to our romance
You and I had our date at lunchtime love shone through
You asked I said yes our hearts knew what to do
Oh summer's echo calling me back to you
Where love was just a shadow but now it's shining through
Tried to run tried to hide but your memory won't let go
In the dance of life you and I we found a love to show
