[Verse 1]
When it was summer
I played until the moonlight
And my vision of the future was a day or two ahead
When it was summer
Lived the way I wanted
Now I try and do that, but I live the way I think I should instead
[Chorus 1]
I've gotten older, but not wiser
Beause I know the things were simpler then
But if someone tries to tell you, "these are the best days of your life"
Well next year, they'll try to tell you again
[Verse 2]
When it was summer
It was all a big deal
Except for things that now occupy a big space in my brain
When it was a summer
All I wanted was to be grown up
But I don't remember when that changed
[Bridge]
My (my my my my) intentions are inventions and dimensions
Of a never-ending thread
My (my my my my) intentions are just misdirections
Disguised inside my head
[Verse 3]
When it was summer
I looked in the mirror
But only after a shower, to draw pictures in the glass
[Chorus 2]
Everything was better in the good old days
We can't help it, we grow up too fast
There's nothings wrong with thinking back on good times
But you're in trouble when you're living in the past
Everything was better in the good old days
We can't help it, we group up too fast
There's nothing wrong with thinking back on good times
But you're in trouble when you're living in the past
Everything was better in the good old days
We can't help it, we group up too fast
There's nothing wrong with thinking back on good times
But you're in trouble when you're living in the past
[Fade out]
