Ooh, farewell my summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you
Farewell, my summer love, farewell, ooh


I found my happiest days
when you came to see your grandma in may

I bumped into you at the corner store
I told you that you sure looked good, now


Your grandma's house was next to mine
We were together most of the time
But summer's gotten away from us

Time's moving too fast for us
Bye, bye, don't turn around
'Cause you might see me cry


Farewell my summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you

Farewell, my summer love, farewell, ooh, yeah

When you return to your hometown

And you discuss your trip
Will I be the guy that you put down?
Or someone that you don't forget, no?


I'll never forget you
And maybe next year

When you're out of school
You'll return, but until you do, baby
Bye, bye don't turn around

You might see my cry

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you
Farewell, my summer love, farewell, yeah


Ooh, farewell, farewell
Ooh, farewell, farewell


If you remember my name
(Drop a line)
Drop a line sometime, yeah, yeah, ooh

Girl I won't forget you

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you
Farewell, my summer love, farewell, ooh, yeah


Farewell my summer love, farewell
Girl oh yeah
Farewell, my summer love, farewell, farewell yeah, yeah, yeah


Farewell my summer love, farewell
Girl I won't forget you

Farewell, my summer love, farewell
