That Sunday, That Summer lyrics

Nat King Cole

If I had to choose just one day
To last my whole life through,
It would surely be that Sunday
The day that I met you.
Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills
Summer was a-comin' in but fast.
Lots of daffodils were showin' off their skills,
Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper,
"Go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her."
If I had to choose one moment
To live within my heart,
It would be that tender moment
Recalling how we started.
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me
That way...
That Sunday...
That summer.
Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills,
Summer was a-comin' in but fast.
Lots of daffodils were showin' off their skills,
Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper,
"Go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her."
If I had to choose one moment
To live within my heart,
It would be that tender moment
Recalling how we started.
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me
That way...
That Sunday...
That summer.
If I had to choose just one day.
