I wish that summer
Could last forever
That cold winds never
Would reach our door
I wish old partners
Could ride for ever
On summer ranges
Forever more

But snow must fall
On summer ranges
Old friends must face
The bitter wind
And someday when
The season changes
On summer ranges
We'll ride again

So may my farewell
Always warm you
And let the sun dance
In your heart
May thoughts of parting
Never harm you
For true partner
Never part
But snow must fall
On summer ranges
Old friends must face
The bitter wind
And someday when
The season changes
On summer ranges
We'll ride again

And someday when
The season changes
On summer ranges
We'll ride again
