Lyrics: The Motels. Suddenly Last Summer.

It happened one summer
It happened one time
It happened forever
For a short time

A place for a moment
An end to dream
Forever I loved you
Forever it seemed

One summer never ends
One summer never began
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly last summer

Sometimes I never leave
But sometimes I would
Sometimes I stay too long
Sometimes I would

Sometimes it frightens me
Sometimes it would
Sometimes I'm all alone
And wish that I could

One summer never ends
One summer never begins
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly last summer
And then suddenly last summer

One summer never ends
One summer never begins
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly last summer

And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer

And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer
It happened suddenly last summer
