Estate (Summer) - Eliane Elias

In summer… I miss you more than any other season

my heart has lost all thought of rhyme or reason

without you it’s like winter in my heart

In summer… the memory of things we did together

is stronger than the trials we had to weather

without you, i feel winter in my heart

it’s the end of life daydream

like plucking all the petals from the roses

like burying all the secrets love discloses

like stopping songs of birds before they start

In summer… when once again feel that old desire

as you return to set my soul on fire

Please darling, take the winter from my heart

(second bridge)

I feel you always near me in every song the morning breeze composes

in all the tender wonder of the roses

each time the setting sun shines on the sea

in summer…

and when you sleep beneath your snowy cover

I’ll keep you in my heart just like a lover

and wait until you come again to me
