A Summer Love to Remember

I wandered down a country road

Towards my grandmother's abode,

And there I met a girl so fair,

With eyes that shone like sunlight's glare.

We walked and talked, the hours flew,

Our laughter echoing in the dew,

And as the sun began to set,

I knew my heart would not forget.

But as the days went slowly by,

And I returned to my parents' lie,

I longed for her and wished to be

Back in her arms, so warm and free.

The memory of her stayed with me,

Through moments of joy and misery,

And though the years have come and gone,

My love for her will e'er be strong.

For in that quaint and peaceful place,

I found a love I could not replace,

And though I'm far from where we met,

My heart still yearns, it can't forget.
