The Shangri-Las - The Sweet Sounds Of Summer

Once I’d wake up I reached out and take your hand
The sky was our blanket, our pillow was the sand
Then on the beach and that’s where we fell in love
The only one who shared our love were the bright stars up above

Now all I have is my lonely room and winter’s come
The only sound that can be heard are my teardrops as they fall

(Remember) Sweet sounds of summer, it drives too strongly
Sweet ways are humming with a sigh
(Remember) Sweet sounds of summer wish I was (?)
Our hearts were slowly way up high

The sweet sound was caught, the quiet of our kiss
The quiet of our lips spelled to our fingertips
And we were lost and in love (so very lost)

Say life’s a game and it hurries by so fast
And if you find someone to love do your best to make it last
We were too young and the summers come and go
Until the time we meet again the memory lingers on

(Remember) Sweet sounds of summer, it drives too strongly
Sweet ways are humming with a sigh
(Remember) Sweet sounds of summer wish I was (?)
Our hearts were slowly way up high

(Remember) Sweet sounds of summer
