Glenn Miller Indian Summer Lyrics

Indian Summer Lyrics

Indian Summer
Glenn Miller
Written by Victor Herbert and Al
Dubin.

As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on November 5th, 1939
with Ray Eberle.
(The melody was actually written in 1919 as a piano piece
subtitled "An American Idyll",
lyrics were added in 1939).

Summer,
you old Indian Summer
You‘re the tear that comes after June time‘s
laughter
You see so many dreams that don’t come true
Dreams we
fashioned when summertime was new
You are here to watch over
Some heart
that is broken
By a word that somebody left unspoken
You’re the ghost
of a romance in June
Going astray, fading too soon...
That’s why I
say,
"Farewell to you, Indian Summer!"
