Victor Herbert
Indian Summer
[Verse 1]
Summer, you old Indian summer
You're the tears that comes after June time's laughter
You see so many dreams that won't come true
Dreams we fashioned when summertime was new
[Verse 2]
You are here to watch over some heart that is broken
By a word that somebody left unspoken
You're the ghost of a romance in June going astray
Fading too soon, that's why I say to you
"Farewell, you old Indian summer"
[Verse 1]
Summer, you old Indian summer
You're the tears that comes after June time's laughter
You see so many dreams that won't come true
Dreams we fashioned when summertime was new
[Verse 2]
You are here to watch over some heart that is broken
By a word that somebody left unspoken
You're the ghost of a romance in June going astray
Fading too soon, that's why I say to you
"Farewell, you old Indian summer"
