Lyrics

Collecting names and places
Like shells upon a string
When the summer's over
I find I haven't anything
I could have concentrated
Paid all my attentions to one ear
But there'd been no smiles in Naples
No featherbed in France
I could have specialized
But then no whirling Mykonos windmills
Would have sent the sand dancing at my ankles
I kept on moving
And what have I to show for it?
A string of summer sea shells
Tied together with a love knot
Written by: Anita Kerr, Rod McKuen
