Intro: G  
LGooking out on a wCindy skGy,
WGatching seabirds Cas they flGy,
On a sFummer day, on a sGummer day.
And nGow the sun is hCere to stGay,
The wGinter seems so fCar awGay,
In the sFummertime, in the sGummertime.
SGitting here with my lCove tonGight,
NGews is breaking frCom the sGouth,
On the rFadio, on the rGadio.
BrGother lead and sCister stGeel,
Are plGaying out their fCinal scGene,
On the rFadio, Con the rGadio.
And whEmen you lie beside me soft and qBmuiet in the night,
I often lCisten to the rhythm of your hGeartbeat giving lDife.
You are so prEmecious to me darling, it will Dalways be that wCay.

CGoming in via sCatellGite,
From AmFerica, from AmGerica.
WhGispers from some fCar-off plGace,
Are drGifting into Couter spGace,
From AmFerica, Cfrom AmGerica.
And wEmhen I see a shooting star go flBmashing in the night,
I often wConder if some other beings Galso see the lDight.
And are they pEmicking up our signals, as they spDin of into spCace.
