Soft winds blow in the summertime
Young lovers feel so free
Walking hand in hand down a shady lane
What happened to me? What happened to me?

Did you ever love a girl
Who walked right out on you?
You should know just how I feel then
Why I'm so blue, why I'm so blue

How can I forget those nights
When she kissed me soft and true
And whispered words only lovers know
Oh, I love you, oh, I love you

Well, I've made up my mind, I'll find a new girl
Who'll love me tenderly
Forget the past I've left behind now
To a sad memory, to a sad memory

Soft winds blow in the summertime
