Frank Sinatra - Summer Wind Meaning

Summer Wind Lyrics

The summer wind, came blowin’ in
From across the sea.
It lingered there, to touch your hair
And walk with me.
All summer long, we sang a song
And then we strolled that golden sand
Two sweethearts, and the Summer wind

Like painted kites,...

   I think it was just a summer romance. The lyrics say “softer than a piper man” not “a piper man” and “it called to you “ not he called to you.

   I believe it's about his lover's death.
   There's no reference to another lover.. just about a 'Piper Man" calling to her. ???

   I think honestly this is about life.
   When you are young everything "is new under the umbrella sky" but time is marching on - and I think it was his youth he was talking about losing.
   In old age the nights go on and on. As a doctor I see that time stretches on for the elderly - but goes all too quick for the young - this is my view!
   One of my favourite songs:)

   It is about a young couple in love during a warm summer month. He lost her because she got ill and died.

   Summer wind is the description of a brief summer romance. The warm wind is a witness of the love and the lost, since the lyric voice tells us she chose the piper man. I imagine this dude as the popular guitar guy in the group.
