In the summertime, when all the trees and leaves are green And the redbird 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 CHORUS 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 redbird sings, I'll be blue 'Cause you don't want my love Once upon a time, you used to smile and wave to me And walk with me, but now you don't You don't want my love ... Some other guy is takin' up all your time Now you don't have time for me You don't want my love
