Roberta Flack – Summertime lyrics
Summertime when will you come
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

I want those peaches on the table
I want the watermelon red
And the warm sun creeping through the window
To ease me out of bed

Summertime when will you come
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

Want the sand out there to lie on
And the sea out there to swim
So my heart can take a holiday
From breakin' over him

Summertime when will you come
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

And I want to drive forever
Wanna roll the windows down
Get the breeze back on my body
Get my feet back on the ground

Summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime

Want the sand out there to lie on
I want the sea out there to swim
So my heart can take a holiday
From breakin' over him

Summertime when will you come
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime I need a sunny day

(Summertime)
I am waiting for you to come my way
I need another sunny day from my winter life away
(Summertime)
I am waiting for you to come my way
I need another sunny day from winter life away

(Summertime)
I am waiting for you to come my way
I need another sunny day
