Birmingham 6 – Letras de Summertime Is Over

Howl and bark and yell and mourn
Summertime is over
Quail before the nearing down
Summertime is over
Winter finds us bleak and old
Summertime is over
Overtaken by the cold
Summertime has gone for good

Summer was the kindest host
Winter is a languid ghost
I won't venture out of doors
I can't face the winter jaws
This is the way I will end
On my own without a friend
Sheltered in my hideaway
Losing more flesh everyday

Howl and bark and yell and mourn
Quail before the nearing down
Buried under ice and snow
Time is frozen doesn't flow

Layers of white everywhere
I'm imprisoned in my lair
The sight of a dull grey sky
Will never never delight my eye

Summer was the kindest host
Winter is a languid ghost
I won't venture out of doors
I can't face the winter jaws
This is the way I will end
On my own without a friend
Sheltered in my hideaway
Losing more flesh everyday

No more birds and no more bees
No more life in the dead alleys
My life goes to ruin and rack
Summertime will not come back

Can't face the winter jaws
Won't venture out of doors
For summer has gone for good
I'm down I weep I brood
The sight of the dull sky
Will not delight my eye
Deep in my hideaway
Losing flesh everyday
Goes straight to ruin and rack
For summer won't come back
Summertime is over

Summertime will not come back!
