Come Summer She Died - Rick Miller

Doubt thou the stars are fire

Doubt that the sun doth move

Doubt truth be a liar

But never doubt I love

A snowflake in May as my heart reaches back to the day

A flower in June, have I come back for you too soon?

A storm in July brings the water to the land

A falling star on an August night means the answer is at hand

The moonlight shows on the trees at night

As I walk this lonely path

Your ghost has haunted my heart so long

It’s a tether to the past

So please be gone for I’m not as strong As the man we both knew

Time is no longer on my side

If I cannot be with you

An eagle flies from the western sky

As an Omen from a dream

It’s meaning now is clear to me

But my eyes refuse to see

So please be gone for I’m not as strong As the man we once knew

Time is no longer on my side

If I cannot be with you

see.
