Pretend It's Summer Lyrics

Freedy Johnston Pretend It's Summer

I remember when we met
A summer storm wasn't over yet
We discovered our initials matched
Now the radiator's cold
And you're off somewhere I don't know

I pretend it's summer
And go outside
Change the weather
In my mind
Wild roses are in bloom
On a shaded path with you
It's a lonely kind of thing I do

I wonder what made you decide
You took a breath and said goodbye
Left me on that bench alone to cry
Now the ice has had its way
And you're off somewhere who can say

I pretend it's summer
And go outside
Change the weather
In my mind
Days go by and hours pass
You and I lie on the grass
It's the only daydream I have left

Now the ice has had its way
And you're off somewhere who can say
I pick flowers in the snow all day
