Summer girl, you were born with the sun in your heart
              Dm                   C G           F b5               
All you wanted from the start, you wanted love
     C G                                 Am
When all the boys talked of conquering the fortune game
           Dm                    C G
You just re-mained the same, you wanted love

Chorus 1
Dm9                  C G
Love was evasive and hard to grasp
Dm9                       G7
Romance a fairy tale that never lasts

Winter came and you felt the cold of abandonment

As darkness drove out sunshine rays, you still wanted love
   C G                          Am 
As lovers plot against the cords that brought them there
              Dm                           C G
Traitor up and left you there, but he just wanted love

[Chorus 1]

But baby girls with your eyes and funny ways

Proved to all it's not in vain, that love is real
C G                           Am
Life is not what we thought in teenaged dreams
                         Dm                      C G 
You're stronger than those childhood games, just don't give up

Love isn't living and moving on

The tapestry    of perfected love
