That Summer You First Loved Me Lyrics - The Lonesome River Band

Summer in Virginia is calling me back 

A boy and his sweetheart I see 

We strolled through the crowd on the Fourth of July 

The summer when you first loved me 

We climbed up the old rocky ridge 

We swung on the old swinging bridge 

Tasted of love beneath the trees 

Our hearts felt as light as the breeze 

The summer when you first loved me 

Now hard years of living have taken their toll 

And I'm no longer care free 

But your love takes me back to a time when it was so 

The summer when you first loved me 

We climbed up the old rocky ridge 

We swung on the old swinging bridge 

Tasted of love beneath the trees 

Our hearts felt as light as the breeze 

The summer when you first loved me
