You came with the season
As the first swallow sang
A brown headed stranger
With a five-letter name
Doodoodoo doodoo doodoo
We planted our kisses
Where the wild berries grow
My feet sprouted wings
And i flew all the way home
Doodoodoo doodoo doodoo
My cheeks red like fire engines racing
Straight to the heat of your skin
And i know our days are numbered,
Early bird of the summer
You'll fly south just as the fall begins
The leaves changed their colors
And the schoolyards were filled
My coat with the patches
Barely keeps out the chill
Doodoo doodoo doodoo
You sent me a postcard
From a town out of state
I wish it were warmer
And i hope you're the same
Doodoo doodoo doodoo
The fields where we wandered were golden
Now only muddy my boots
And i know i should recover,
You're a bird of the summer,
I was wrong to try and capture you
Flight...
Flight...
And there's someone walkin
In the park, by the lake
Don't fly a gritter
But it won't fly away
Doodoodoo doodoo doodoo
Gone is the pale hand of winter
Here is the first flush of may
And soon I will discover
Whether birds of the summer
Fly in circles or just fly away
