Summer Side Of Life

[Verse 1]
He came down through fields of green
On the summer side of life
His love was ripe
There were no illusions
On the summer side of life
Only tenderness

[Chorus]
And if you saw him now
You'd wonder why he would cry
The whole day long

[Verse 2]
There was young girls everywhere
On the summer side of life
They talked all night
To the young men that they knew
On the summer side of life
Goin' off to fight

[Chorus]
And if you saw them now
You'd wonder why they would cry
The whole day long

[Verse 3]
He came down through fields of green
On the summer side of life
He prayed all night
Then he walked into a house
Where love had been misplaced
His chance to waste

[Chorus]
And if you saw him now
You'd wonder why he would cry
The whole day long

[Outro]
And if you saw him now
You'd wonder why
And if you saw him now
You'd wonder why
And if you saw him now
You'd wonder why
And if you saw him now
