The boat rides we would take,
the moonlight on the lake
The way we danced and hummed our
fav'rite song
The things we did last summer
I'll remember all winter long
The midway and the fun, the
kewpie dolls we won
The bell I rang to prove that I
was strong
The things we did last summer
I'll remember all winter long
The early morning hike, the
rented tandem bike
The lunches that we used to pack
We never could explain that
sudden summer rain
The looks we got when we got
back
The leaves began to fade like
promises we made
How could a love that seemed so
right go wrong?
The things we did last summer
I'll remember all winter long
<brief instrumental>
I've tried so to forget, at
times I do, and yet
The mem'ry of you lingers like
our song
The things we did last summer,
I'll remember all winter long
