Indian Summer Lyrics

Artist: Glenn Miller
Album: Indian Summer

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
Youâ're the tear that comes after June timeâ'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!"
