Swoon

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Sometimes I'm tempted when you take my breath away But these days are windy and the time's all way too short But wind, rain, or hail - all I know's one thing's for sure When all is fading you're a flower in bloom Because your beauty's not just in June And when the April rains try to take you away Or when winter comes and says you've had your day That's when you make them swoon Just to compare you to one season would Not give you credit like I really think I should When all is fading you're a flower in bloom Because your beauty's not just in June And when the April rains try to take you away Or when winter comes and says you've had your day That's when you make them swoon And everything I wanted slipped from right within my hands And all I knew was nobody - no one could understand But when the smoke cleared there was something bright and something true Soon enough the clouds had fled and there was only you Shall I compare thee to a poet's dream? You are the stars, the sky, and all that's in between So long as men can breathe or eyes can see So long lives this - and this gives life to thee When all is fading you're a flower in bloom Because your beauty's not just in June And when the April rains try to take you away Or when winter comes and says you've had your day That's when you make them swoon That's when you make them swoon
