Richard Shindell - A Summer Wind, A Cotton Dress lyrics

I was hers and you were his The night we met out on that bridge You knew then what I know now That love put down comes back some how The comet came, the comet went And hid its face in the firmament I looked once and then turned away When I looked again it was much too late A summer wind, a cotton dress This is how I remember you best A glance held long and a stolen kiss This is how I remember you best The fool I was is the fool I am I've got a wife, I'm a family man But when I lay in our bed I sometimes dream I'm holding you instead (CHORUS) The kids are fine They're six and nine I think you'd probably like my wife But the kitchen light seems much too bright For what I find myself thinking tonight (CHORUS )
