"Smiling Through The Summertime" lyrics

"Smiling Through The Summertime"

I can hardly bear the sight of sunshine in the morning
As it's flooding through the window like some memory returning
Shining on the table now, the light falls on your glass
Where we sat last night and drank to every hour we ever passed

Talk about moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Talk about smiling through the summertime
All the years when you were mine
Moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Darling, you feel a million miles away
When I can't find the words to say

When I hear this record now, perhaps it's strange to say it
But I'm reminded of the evenings when the radio would play it
When we wrote the opening pages of our lonely storyline
And I blew my weekly wages on my only valentine

Talk about moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Talk about smiling through the summertime
All the years when you were mine
Moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Darling, you feel a million miles away
When I can't find the words to say

And all the times we lost our way, mistakes we left behind us
Feel like sunshine through the window when eventually they find us

Talk about moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Talk about smiling through the summertime
All the years when you were mine
Moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Darling, you feel a million miles away
When I can't find the words to say

Moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Talk about smiling through the summertime
All the years when you were mine
Moments in the sun
Talk about sweethearts when they're gone
Darling, you feel a million miles away
When I can't find the words to say
