Story behind the song
A short story of love
Lyrics
One Summer One Winter
Capo 3 standard tuning
If all the earth were about to go bang
I would sing you once more that story we sang
Choose the one that our love wrote
Before all went dark and the world got broke
One summer, one winter, come love with me
One autumn, one springtime, come lie down with me
The one about the seasons when I loved you
One summer, one winter our fingers turned blue
One autumn, one spring, of the hours in our bed
You picked me a flower and cradled my head
One summer, one winter, come love with me
One autumn, one springtime, come lie down with me
I would sing you our love till no country remained
The birds flew to heaven and forever they stayed
Tell the whole world, who ever was left
That one summer, one winter I loved you the best
One summer, one winter, come love with me
One autumn, one springtime, come lie down with me
And when the sad earth has given up trying
To sustain our greed and we’ve caused its dying
I would hope that some distant star shines for us
And remembers one summer, one winter in love
One summer, one winter, come love with me
One autumn, one springtime, come lie down with me
