I'll Be Back When the Winter's Gone - Jimmy Webb

Summer’s over

I must be going

My love, I’m sorry

If the tears are showing

But it’s more than I can bear

To walk away

And leave you standing there

Oh darling, wait

Until the winter’s gone

Oh darling, wait

If we can just go on

I’ll be back when the winter’s gone

June was heaven

But nothing like July

And where did August go?

When did the summer fly?

We let it slip away

And I must go

And darling you must stay

But if you wait

Until the winter’s gone

Oh darling, just wait

If we can just go on

I’ll be back when the winter’s gone

It was just anothr summer romance

From the start, it nver had a real chance

But now that I’m holding you in the last dance

Can’t help saying:

Darling wait

Until the winter’s gone

Oh darling wait

If we can just go on

I’ll be back when the winter’s gone
