The dancing flames grow low
Painting embers start to glow
The pictures soon will fade
Pictures that the flames have made
Your hazy whisper fades
Suddenly is gone without a trace
Reminiscing summer walks
Pentagon says moonlit talks
Promises that mean so much
Broken with a single touch
Passing fancies fly away
Meeting shadows on the sunlit bay
Summer days I float downstream
Wondering where the day has been
Boats that sail away at night
Come the dawn
Have sailed far out of sight
Deserted evening warm and still
Strangers come and go at will
Driftwood on the silent shore
Laughter from an open door
Friendly faces once again
Come inside before it starts to rain
Summer days I float downstream
Wondering where the day has been
Boats that sail away at night
Come the dawn
Have sailed far out of sight
