“He was just like summer, and she loved summer. If she had any wish, it would be to live a lifetime of summers.”

“I fell for her in summer, my lovely summer girl,From summer she is made, my lovely summer girl,I’d love to spend a winter with my lovely summer girl,But I’m never warm enough for my lovely summer girl,It’s summer when she smiles, I’m laughing like a child,It’s the summer of our lives; we’ll contain it for a whileShe holds the heat, the breeze of summer in the circle of her handI’d be happy with this summer if it’s all we ever had.”

“But then she hadn’t just learned to love this summer – she had also learned how to need.”

“…she remembered watching a summer sunset from this very spot. Not so long ago; just a lifetime.”

“She had always thought of love as something confused and furtive, and he made it as bright and open as the summer air.”

“And for just a fleeting moment, a tiny wisp of time that hung in the air like firefliesin summer skies, she wondered if she was in love with him again.”
