In The Summertime lyrics

In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are 
green 
And the red bird sings I'll be blue cause you don't 
want my love 
Some other time that's what you say when I want you 
Then you laugh at me and make me cry 'cause you don't 
want my love. 

You don't seem to care a thing about me, you'd rather 
live without me 
Than to have my arms around you when the nights are 
cold and you're so all alone 
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are 
green 
And the red bird sings I'll be blue 'cause you don't 
want my love. 

--- Instrumental --- 

Once upon a time you used to smile and wave to me 
And walked with me but now you don't cause you don't 
want my love 
Some other girl is taking up all your time 
You don't have time for me 'cause you don't want my 
love. 

You don't seem to care a thing about me, you'd rather 
live without me 
Than to have my arms around you when the nights are 
cold and you're so all alone 
In the summertime when all the trees and leaves are 
green 
And the red bird sings I'll be blue 'cause you don't 
want my love...
