Farewell My Summer Love

Michael Jackson · Anthology [1990]

Oooh,

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you,

Farewell, my summer love, farewell, ooh



I found my happiest days,

When you came to see your grandma in may

I bumped into you by the corner store

I told you that you sure looked good, now



Your grandma's house was next to mine

We were together most of the time

But summer's gotten away from us

Time's moving too fast for us

(Bye, bye)



Don't turn around

'Cause you might see me cry

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you

Farewell, my summer love, farewell, ooh, yeah



When you return to your hometown

And you discuss your trip

Will I be the guy that you put down

Or someone that you don't forget, no?



I'll never forget you

And maybe next year

When you're out of school

You'll return, but until you do, baby

(Bye, bye)



Don't turn around

You might see me cry

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you

Farewell, my summer love, farewell, yeah



Oooh

Farewell, farewell

Oooh,

Farewell, farewell



If you remember my name,

(Drop a line)

Drop a line sometime, yeah

Yeah, ooh

Girl I won't forget you

Farewell my summer love, farewell

Girl I won't forget you



When you return to your hometown

And you discuss your trip

Will I be the guy that you put down

Or someone that you don't forget, no?



I'll never forget you

And maybe next year

When you're out of school

You'll return, but until you do, baby

(Bye, bye)



Don't turn around

You might see me cry

Farewell, my summer love, farewell, oohh, yeah

Farewell, my summer love, farewell
