A Summer Wind, A Cotton Dress Lyrics


I was hers and you were his
The night we met out on that bridge
You knew then what I know now
That love put down comes back some howThe comet came, the comet went
And hid its face in the firmament
I looked once and then turned away
When I looked again it was much too lateA summer wind, a cotton dress
This is how I remember you best
A glance held long and a stolen kiss
This is how I remember you bestThe fool I was is the fool I am
I've got a wife, I'm a family man
But when I lay in our bed
I sometimes dream I'm holding you instead(CHORUS)The kids are fine
They're six and nine
I think you'd probably like my wife
But the kitchen light seems much too bright
For what I find myself thinking tonight(CHORUS )

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Richard Shindell (born 1960, Lakehurst, New Jersey) is an American folk singer. He currently lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina with his wife and their children. Shindell's songwriting often involves storytelling from a first-person point of view: from an INS officer and illegal immigrant in "Fishing", to a World War II soldier in "Sparrows Point", to a Confederate drummerboy in "Arrowhead", to an Argentine grandmother of Plaza de Mayo in "Abuelita", to a power broker in "Confession".
