See the curtains hanging in the window
In the evening on a friday night
A little light a-shining through the window
Lets me know everything's all right
Summer breeze makes me feel fine
Blowing through the jasmine in my mind

See the paper laying on the sidewalk
A little music from the house next door
So I walk on up to the doorstep
Through the screen and across the floor

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom
July is dressed up, is playing her tune
When I come home from a hard day's work
And you're waiting there, not a care in the world

See the smile a-waiting in the kitchen
Food cooking and the plates for two
Feel the arms that reach out to hold you
In the evening when the day is through
