One Summer's Worth

Lyrics: Woodriver

Tonight as the late August dusk is falling
A dawning memory is calling

INSTRUMENTAL

We were like two adventurers in an unknown land
Searching for holy treasures on ancient sand
Whispering in the summer wind were the voices of our hearts
Calling out for each other's names though we seemed worlds apart

The sun was shining and the skies were blue
Why did you have to go?

Chorus(I)
You were all my wildest dreams comin' true
You were the eight wonder of the Earth
You were my destiny, where I was meant to go
But I was only one summer's worth

Chorus(II)
You were the most beautiful girl I'd seen
You must have been an angel by birth
You were my other half, who I've never been
But I was only one summer's worth
(Only one summer's worth)

Intoxicatingly seducing, your scent filled my senses
Your lips touched mine gently, like the soft ocean breezes
Sparkling in the late summer night were the fire of our desires
We were reaching for the stars but our souls soared even higher

Now the rain starts falling and the sky's all black
God don't I want you back!

Chorus(I)
You were all my wildest dreams comin' true
You were the eight wonder of the Earth
You were my destiny, where I was meant to go
But I was only one summer's worth

Chorus(II)
You were the most beautiful girl I'd seen
You must have been an angel by birth
You were my other half, who I've never been
But I was only one summer's worth
(Only one summer's worth)

Tonight when the late August dusk has fallen
Her dawning memory's a caller

(Chorus/INSTRUMENTAL)

Tonight she'll be waiting in my dreams
In my lifetime's most precious scenes
