SUMMER

    by John Denver, Mike Taylor & Dick Kniss

Silently the morning mist is lying on the water
Captive moonlight waiting for the dawn
Softly like a baby's breath a breeze begins to whisper
The sun is coming, quick you must be gone
Smiling like a superstar the morning comes in singing
The promise of another sunny day
And all the flowers open up to gather in the sunshine
I do believe that summer's here to stay

    And oh I love the life within me
    I feel a part of everything I see
    And oh I love the like around me
    A part of everything is here in me

Riding on the tapestry of all there is to see
So many ways and oh so many things
Rejoicing in the differences; there's no one just like me
Yet as different as we are we're still the same

    And oh I love the life within me
    I feel a part of everything I see
    And oh I love the like around me
    A part of everything is here in me
