Summertime
Dorothy Heyward, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
So you made a new friend
It hasn't been a week yet
You brought her to the old town
Has she kept the secret?
But you want her love
You want the girl
After midnight
It's so hard to say goodbye
Summertime
It's always when you come alive, yeah
Gotta turn the breeze on
When it gets hot can't fall in love, no
But it's easier
To stay out of touch with her
To stay at a distance so
The love, it won't overgrow
Old enough to see
This isn't what it seems, you're
Young enough to bleed
The love you could not show
Where did you go?
Summertime
It's always when you come alive
Breeze on
When it gets hot can't fall in love, no
But every time
I'm looking dead into your eyes
And move in your direction
Give me some affection
Give me some
