In another younger day I could dream the time away 
In the universe inside my room 
And the world was really mine from june til september 
And if it wasn't really so I was lucky not to know 
And I was lucky not to wonder why 
Because the summer time is all that I remember 

A summer fly was buzzin' every night when I was young 
In the gentle world my childlike senses knew 
And the world was just my cousin 
And the wind was just the tongue 
In the voice my lonely moments listened to 

And I look at me today all the dreams have gone away 
And I'm where I never thought I would be 
Seein' things I never thought I would see happen'en to 
me 
And I lay awake at night til the darkness turns to 
light 
Hearin' voices callin' out my name 
Dronin' over and again the same message to me 

Cryin' who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's 
your baby now? 
Who wakes up at night to pull you in 
But it don't matter, you'll just make her lonely anyhow 
I don't know why you even try to win

Cryin' who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's 
your baby now? 
Who wakes up at night to pull you in 
But it don't matter, you'll just make her lonely anyhow 
I don't know why you even try to win

But it don't matter, you'll just make her lonely anyhow 
I don't know why you even try to win
