The Days of Summer Now Long Gone

Days of Summer Now Long Gone

 

We were young and life was sweet

Running those summer streets in bare feet

Staying out late, dirt rings on our neck

Watching the clouds while laying on the deck

We played ball in the neighbors yard

Made bikes into motorcycles with a playing card

Drank water out of the water hose

Played Freeze Tag and struck a pose

It was summer time and school was out

We were young, alive, and had no doubt

Life was so much simpler back then

Before all of life’s adult stress moved in

Heartache the fast pace of life brought on

Oh for the days of summer now long gone
