See That the Summer's Come

Babe, where’s your smile?
Don’t be a melancholy child,
Can’t you see
That the summer’s come?
 
Alone in your room,
With your winter curtains drawn,
While the suburbs
Are all bathed in sun,
 
No more wintertime lows,
Only joy now because
We can shake off the blues,
There’s no time to lose,
 
We can go for a cruise
Down the Thames or down the Ouse,
Or just snooze
Under summer sun,
 
Find a village green,
Watch some cricket, take some tea,
As you please,
Summer’s made for fun,
 
Get some sweet summer air,
Feel the breeze in your hair,
Forget that sad old romance,
He’s not worth all the tears,
 
Cast your cares on me,
I can set you free,
Don’t let me wait too long,
Summer will soon be gone.
