Summer Fun

I miss being six, being hugged, being kissed
Being loved, by my mum, birthday songs, christmas gifts
Walk to school, go to class, learn some math, do some art
Write a story fighting monsters coz I'm scared of the dark
Hear the bell for morning tea, we race for the monkey bars
Playing tag till I can't breathe, oi! I got your shirt, nuh-uh!
Swings and a slide, itchy grass, summer sky
Losing teeth, velcro feet, swapping seats, friends for life

It's been so long, since I've felt young
Where have those days gone? Summer fun

I miss riding bikes, till day becomes night
Till mum wants a fight coz I ain't text her I'm all right
But mum oughta see, I'm all good, I'm sixteen
Not a kid, I'm a teen so you ain't gotta bother me
I've been with some friends, playing soccer I scored ten
We fought and made amends, laughed a lot and played again
I saw that girl from school, ma she's nice I swear she's cool
Yeah we broke up that's old news, what? Me? A fool?

It's been so long, since I've felt young
Where have those days gone? Summer fun

I miss being drunk, jumping fences just for fun

Being young, being dumb, coz I'm only twenty one
Climb the roof, summer sun, bring along the beer and rum
Sit and chill and talking shit about the people we'll become
I'll either be an artist or, I'll become a bum
I'm pretending I'm an adult but, I've barely begun
Mum I'm gonna get a job and the pressure's gonna come
But before I get a boss, I'll give this guitar a strum

It's been so long, since I've felt young
Where have those days gone? Summer fun
It's been so long, since I've felt young
Where have those days gone? Summer fun

I wish things stayed the same, but I'm glad I've grown, I've changed
I have so much more to say, I have so much more to chase
I have gained and lost good friends, I have strayed and found a way
I have wasted many chances but there's plenty more to take
The pressures coming faster, so I'll take a step and breathe
Mamma said keep working harder, what you grow is what you seed
No, I'm never perfect and I know I'll never be
But I'm working and I'm searching for the man I wanna see

It's been so long, and I've grown
What will the days hold, when tomorrow comes
