summer boy

There was a boy That I once knew His laugh was too loud And his eyes were too blue He smelled like a breeze on a warm August day He dried up my tears Like the sun dries up the rain His jokes were like lemonade Sweet with a punch His frowns they were little But his smiles they were much And just like the sun He was here everyday But when it got colder He went away My summer boy Gone too soon I hate the snow And I really hate the moon I still see a shadow of a boy who looks like you I hope you find someone new You danced in the sun While I danced in the rain I couldn't tell You were in so much pain You hated the seasons Except for one I would have walked faster If I knew you would run My summer boy Gone too soon I hate that snow And I really that moon I still see a shadow of a boy who looks like you I hope you find someone Who's your umbrella when the rain starts to pour Because I was just your raincoat And you said you wanted more So I watered your soul I picked out the weeds So when autumn came I know you wouldn't leave My summer boy Forgot about spring He only saw the cold and the bare trees But those trees watched you grow into the most beautiful thing Before there is summer, there was spring
