When I met you in the summertime I thought you were everything that I ever wanted Now I see that you’re not worth it At all You’re just trash in my life And I don’t even care It’s
When I met you in the summer time I thought you were everything that I ever wanted Now I see that you’re not worth it At all You’re just trash in my life And I don’t even care It’s better off this way Better off without you This is the end of our story
When I Met You In The Summer
When I met you in the summer
I was feeling so fine
You were the one that I wanted to see
So many times I wished that I could
It's funny how things change
And now you're gone, but not forgotten
Now all of my memories of you stay
The Song's Background
The song When I Met You In The Summer was written by Bill Withers and published in 1969. The song is about a girl who has just turned 16 and is dating a college boy. She remembers when she was younger and how she would wait all summer for him to come back to her town. Now that they are both adults, they can't even get close to each other because he's busy with his career and she's busy with her friends. The lyrics talk about how the summer before the young girl's 17th birthday, the boy finally comes back to her town. They spend that summer together and fall in love.
Lyrics
When I met you in the summer
I knew that I loved you
From the very first time
We sat together on the front porch
Talking until it was getting late
Video of the Song
Video of the song:
When I met you in the summer,
I thought you were divine.
Your skin was so fair,
And your eyes were so blue.
You had a smile that could light up a room,
And I fell head-over-heels for you.
Conclusion
I remember the first time I saw you, On a hot summer day. You were wearing shorts, and I could see your thighs, And I thought to myself that girl is pretty!
