Lyric of the week (week 9)

This week, I wasn’t sure what to use as a song. Can you believe that? The person who can think of a lyric for any situation is lyric-less? I know why I was.

And I know why I selected this particular song. One of my good friends Jewel called me so excited about the first song from Stevie Wonder’s new CD. I had already thought about getting it and so her call made me rush to get it. Not saying it isn’t great, and plus I haven’t given it a good run yet. But he’s such a great song writer. Doesn’t matter how I tried, I couldn’t say it without it being another gross understatement. So I had to go back on you and pull this one out. This song has some other significance. It’s the soundtrack for two major events of my life. So I was searching my hard drive for a lyric .. and here is this week’s lyric of the week.

“I never dreamed you leave in summer”
Artist: Stevie Wonder
Album: From the 1971 album “Where I'm Coming From”

I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
I thought that you would go and come back home

I thought the cold would leave by summer
But my quiet nights will be spent alone

You said there would be warm love in springtime
That is when you started to be cold

I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
But now I found my self all alone

You said then you’d be the life in autumn
Said you be the one to see the way

Oh I never dreamed you'd leave in summer
But now I find my love has gone away

Why didn’t you stay?
