He came down through fields of green
On the summer side of life
His love was ripe
There was no illusions
On the summer side of life
Only tenderness
And if you saw him now
You’d wonder why he would cry
A whole day long
There was young girls everywhere
On the summer side of life
They talked all night
To the young men that they knew
On the summer side of life
Goin’ off to fight
And if you saw them now
You’d wonder why they would cry
A whole day long
He came down through field of green
On the summer side of life
He prayed all night
Then he walked into a house
Where love had been misplaced
His chance to waste
And if you saw him now
You’d wonder why he would cry
A whole day long
And if you saw him now
You’d wonder why
And if you saw him now
You’d wonder why
And if you saw him now
You’d wonder why
