Dusty Springfield

The night runs away with the day

The grass that was green is now hay

The world goes around without even a sound

And it looks like the summer is over

The rains tumble down in the sky

Young swallows have learned how to fly

The leaves that were green are no longer so green

And it looks like the summer is over

The sun and the moon take turns in the sky

The days drift on by too soon

The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist

Far away now is June

The birds fly away to the sun

The leaves touch the ground one by one

The breeze hurries by without even goodbye

And it looks like the summer is over

The sun and the moon take turns in the sky

The days drift on by too soon

The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist

Far away now is June

The birds fly away to the sun

The leaves touch the ground one by one

The breeze hurries by without even goodbye

And it looks like the summer is over

Thanks for posting this beautiful song. Is that really Dusty at 1:18? Does anyone know when this picture was taken?

Well....we have had a great Summer this year,maybe started a little late but it certainly lingered when it decided to visit! Sadly,the darker nights are slowly creeping in and the weather is changing .. This lovely song by the wonderful Dusty Springfield fits the mood perfectly as all gradually creeps towards Winter in just a few more weeks....but what a beautiful,wistful song it is... K x
