Sons Of Summer Lyrics - Carly Simon

(Billy Mernit) 

It makes me smile 

To think of what we dreamed of 

Where are those sons of summer now 

With their wild-haired women in their 

patchwork gowns 

Who could laugh the lights away 

Nights on the beach and bay 

The course on farms 

And the course in the bar 

Sweet smokin' in the back of the car 

Always the first time shines to last like a morning star 

Like a morning star 

It's been a while since the last time we were dancing 

Where are those sons of summer now 

With their long-limber ladies who all knew how 

To chase the blues away 

I've got the blues today 

Your ivy days and your clubhouse ways 

Wine mug nights when the music played 

Love that is real will not fade away like a morning star

Where are those sons of summer now 

The winter has come 

And you don't know how to turn your 

Dreams into coal 

Your books won't hold you 

The woods get cold 

And I feel too old 

I begin to question your schoolboy soul 

Clever remarks that once won my heart 

When the fire won't light they lose their spark 

And I can't help but get a little bit blue 

thinking about the precious nothing we 

Once knew
