Answer
Dear Sarah,

That song would be WHEN I THINK OF YOU by LEIF GARRETT. LEIF was a late 70's-early 80's teen idol who doubled as a recording artist. WHEN I THINK OF YOU was a cut from his 1978 second album titled FEEL THE NEED. It was also included on his third release, 1979's SAME GOES FOR YOU. Here's its lyrics:

WHEN I THINK OF YOU / LEIF GARRETT

When I think of you
I think of sunny days and dream
Warm nights into the
Sun in your heart

When I think of you
I think of dancing in the street
Feeling every beat
Of a good song far

The summer's ending
Winding back to let you
Now there's nothing' to do
But wait for the summer
Wait for the summer

And you...?

When I think of you
I remember when the kiss
The radio was playing
In a simple tune

When I think of you
I think of running out the beach
Passes in the evernin'
The sand out of fear

When I think of you
I think of sunny days and dream
Warm nights into the
Sun in your heart

When I think of you
I think of dancing in the street
Feeling every beat
Of a good song far

The summer's ending
Winding back to let you
Now there's nothing' to do
But wait for the summer
Wait for the summer
Wait for the summer

And you...?
I've gotta wait for the summer
And you...?
I've gotta wait for the summer
And you...?
I've gotta wait for the summer
Wait for the summer


Maraming salamat po!!

Expertise

I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.

Experience

Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
