In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are green
And the red bird sings I`ll be blue cause you don`t want my love
Some other time that`s what you say when I want you
Then you laugh at me and make me cry cause you don`t want my love
You don`t seem to care a thing about me you`d rather live without me
Than to have my arms around you when the nights`re cold and you`re so all alone
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are green
And the red bird sings I`ll be blue cause you don`t want my love
[ steel ]
Once upon a time you used to smile and wave to me
And walked with me but now you don`t you don`t want my love
Some other guy is taking up all your time
Now you don`t have time for me you don`t want my love
You don`t seem to care a thing about me...
