Pat McCarthy - Fling Lyrics

I heard you got an apartment with garden
That must be nice
It sounds nice
I bet you plant the nicest fruits in Brooklyn
And the apple root is ripe this time of year
I bet all the kids coming running for your sweet potato tree
I should admit I don't much about gardening
But I do
Remember you
And how Spring could never end too soon
I loved you in the summer
Cause summer's when you'd visit
And when you'd visit you would call
I heard you took a backpacking trip to Spain
That must've been fun
It sounds fun
I bet the locals loved the way you knew their native tongue
I guess all those years of Latin finally paid off
I can picture you with champagne on a beach in Madrid
I should say I don't much about Spain
But I do
Remember you
And how Spring could never end too soon
I loved you in the summer
Cause summer's when you'd visit
And when you'd visit you would call
16 years I've spent
Wondering where you went
Now I know, now I know
Do you know what we had
When we ran down the street freely
Your inhibition tame
Not formed yet. Non-inhibiting
But oh, don't say a thing
Summers always have their flings
