Always wanted to be a child of summer
Maybe that would change my disposition
I've been running around all these years
Praying for some for some kind of intermission
And I never minded loneliness
In fact, I craved it like a hunger
But now I find myself alone again
And the sorrow takes me under

Born under the full bright moon
I guess that's what made me crazy
Wonder how our love could fade away
Perhaps we just got lazy
I never minded loneliness
Until it came to claim mе
So when I found myself alone again
I criеd like a baby

Oh, love
Keep the weight off my shoulders
Keep the wind at my back
Oh, love
If I'm not there, am I on the right track?

Are you still wearing your blue raincoat?
The one that's torn at the shoulder
We used to dance and laugh and sing
With no thought of ever growing older
And I never needed reassurance
From some kind of higher power
But now I find myself wondering
In my lonely hour

And I keep thinking there's a place to go
Somewhere I can start over
I'll just wander this big old world
End up another deadbeat rover
But if I needed company
Would you be there to guide me?
If there's no path for me to take
Then I'll wait for it to find me

Oh, love
Keep the weight off my shoulders
Keep the wind at my back
Oh, love
If I'm not there, am I on the right track?

Always wanted to be a child of summer
Maybe that would change my disposition
