It makes me smile to think of what we dreamed of
Where are those sons of summer now
With their wild-haired women in their patchwork gowns
Who could laugh the lights away
Nights on the beach and bay
The course on farms and the course in the bar
Sweet smokin' in the back of the car
Always the first time shines to last like a mornin' star
Like a mornin' star

It's been a while since the last time we were dancin'
Where are those sons of summer now
With their long-limbed ladies who all knew how
To chase the blues away
I got the blues today
Your ivy days and your clubhouse ways
Wine mug nights when the music played
Love that is real will not fade away like a mornin' star
Like a mornin' star

Where are those sons of summer now
The winter has come and you don't know how
To turn your dreams into coal
Your books won't hold you
The woods get cold and I feel too old
I begin to questioning your schoolboy soul
Clever remarks that once won my heart
When the fire won't light, well, they lose their spark
And I can't help but get a little bit blue
Thinkin' 'bout the precious nothing we once knew
