Lyrics:

The summer child is running, the summer child is running again
The summer child is running, the summer child is running again
When you hear the feet and the sound of laughter
Better step aside for the mayhem after
Here she comes, yeah, the summer child's running again

It's the stormy season
Lighting flashes through the air
And the water bugs are busy spinning backwards in the rain

The summer child is running, the summer child is running again
The summer child is running, the summer child is running again
And they're running out like old tin tops
One of them is down and all time stops
Now she's up, yeah, the summer child's running again

Come, my freezing daughter
Brave the icy water
Enter slowly under cherry blossoms racing as you see the gates of summer


There is time and time to come
Underneath the golden sun
And forever will melt slowly in a glass of lemonade

And oh, she's coming running and oh, she's coming running again
The summer child is running, the summer child is running again
Better have a seat 'cause you won't run past her
Try to take it in, every year she's faster
Here she comes, yeah, the summer child's running again
The sun is shining and the summer child's running again
