(Blaise Tosti/Bud Reneau)

Though the sun may be dawning 
You're the one that lights the morning 
As I awake to the heaven 
Of your sweet summer lovin' 

By a stream in the country 
Running barefoot and feeling free 
While the love in our hearts blend 
Into sweet summer lovin' 

Sweet summer lovin' in the dandelions 
Sweet summer lovin' keeps me high as candy wine 

When that big red balloon sets 
Like a painting across the West 
As the sky turns a crimson blue 
As the world turns for me and you 

By the light of the moon glowing 
While the warm summer wind blows 
'Cross the sill of your window 
We'll be letting our love flow 

Sweet summer lovin' in the dandelions 
Sweet summer lovin' keeps me high as candy wine 

Sweet summer lovin' in the dandelions 
Sweet summer lovin' keeps me high as candy wine 

Sweet summer lovin' 
Sweet summer lovin' 
Mmm... 
Sweet summer lovin' 
Mmm... 
Sweet summer lovin' 
I love your sweet summer lovin' 
Sweet summer lovin' 
Sweet summer lovin' 
Mmm... 
Sweet summer lovin' 
Mmm... 
Sweet summer lovin'
