Summer

We had sandwiches and apple juice
On that sweet afternoon in the summer
And you only wanted me to play
You had no time to waste in the summer
So you only ate half
I had to laugh
Cuz There will always be time for scolding
You're only getting older

So I'm holding my tongue
Keeping my peace
It runs deep and wide
And I'm wading right in
Playing your games
And I'm running the full length of summer
By your side

Making funny mirror faces
I caught you looking at me
Looking at your hair
But you don't care
It's only there for me to measure

How short the days are long
How fast the days of slow go away
So I'm wading right in
Playing your games
And I'm running the full length of summer
By your side
