The day the arms of summer opened wide [x2]
A song came on the radio of love that burned like fire
Told of things than can not be denied.

When love is one you know it don't divide [x2]
Did you see the rushing river, did you feel the rising tide
Coming for to carry you home to the other side?

In city streets the air went still and quiet [x2]
And I cried for something yet to be as for the light that died
And all around the air was still and quiet.

The day the arms of summer opened wide [x2]
A song came on the radio of love that burned like fire
Told of things than can not be denied.
