Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Summer soft
Wakes you up with a kiss to start the morning off
In the midst of herself playing Santa Claus
She brings gifts through her breeze
[Verse 2]
Morning rain
Gently plays her rhythms on your window pane
Giving you no clue of when she plans to change
To bring rain or sunshine
[PreChorus]
And so you wait to see what she'll do
Is it sun or rain for you?
But it breaks your heart in two
When you find it's October
[Chorus]
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone
Taking with her summer's play
[Verse 3]
Winter wind
Whispers to you that he wants to be your friend
But not waiting for your answer he begins
Forcing dangers way with his breeze
[Verse 4]
Morning snow
Plans to have a winter ball for you to throw
But just where or when he never lets you know
If it's snow or clear days you'll find
[PreChorus]
And so you wait to see what he'll do
Is it sun or snow for you?
But it breaks your heart in two
'Cause you've been fooled by April
[Chorus]
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone
You find it's October
[Chorus]
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone
You've been fooled by April
[Chorus]
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone
You find it's October
[Chorus]
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone
You've been fooled by April
[Outro]
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone
