This is song number 2 on side 2 of the Partridge Family Album.
Lyrics
Like a summer wind in the fall
Like a colour book without a paper doll
CHORUS:
This is what it's like
To be Lovers
To be lovers when you're not in love
Like a drift of snow falling in June
Like a November night without an Autumn moon
CHORUS
A sad old tree that's branches will not grow
A beautiul valley filled with sand
It's like a mockingbird wiht no song
Try to imagine the sun sleeping through dawn
CHORUS
SOLO (Instrumental Verse)
CHORUS
FADE

Fun Fact
-- The original pilot for the show was a little darker than what we remember. The family lived in Ohio instead of California (which isn't a huge deal), and also established that Mr. Partridge was a pretty heavy drinker. His death is talked about and sets a different tone for the series. In the sent-to-air version of the show, Mr. Partridge's death is never discussed. (Meg 2017)
