SUMMER COME ALONG Ralph McTell Summer come, I finally made it I never thought I'd get to see the winter through I watched the birds race their shadows cross the cornfield Well, you can't catch them, but I can catch you. And I've been waiting for the summer it's true But I've been waiting just as long for you. Summer come around Summer come around Summer come around Summer come around. Summer come along. Look at the fields do you see them growing? Feel the grass breathe under your feet I'll give you a gold watch to put in the pocket Of any scarecrow that you meet. Chorus Make up your mind, I gotta be going Time and tide wait for no one, it's true And summer this year was such a long time coming Don't make me wait for you. Chorus
