Summer Sister

It was the summer of 82 Guarded by angels full of sisu With my summer sister in her town of espoo I hold it in my mind It was midsommar and the sun hung low All through the night its hazy glow And in my dreams I like to be with my Summer sister always We went to a park called linnanmäki Rode the roller coaster so rickety Built of wood in the winter of 1950 I hold it in my mind It was midsommar and the sun hung low All through the night its hazy glow And in my dreams I like to be with my Summer sister always You introduced me to the sauna steam Invigorating I never felt so clean A sauna on every corner it seemed I hold it in my mind It was Midsommar and the sun hung low All through the night its hazy glow And in my dreams I like to be with my Summer sister always Juhannus Midsommar came Bonfires on ponds cavier on grains We said kippis and we drank champagne I hold it in my mind It was Midsommar and the sun hung low All through the night its hazy glow And in my dreams I like to be with my Summer sister always Always Always
