A poem by me, Camille
By day, we hung out by the pool
By nite, we roamed the streets which we ruled
Days were lazy, nites were crazy
Just walkin’ around with nothing to do
Boys being jerks, shouting “Screw You!”
Girls having their usual boy craze
Ah, those sweet summertime days
Talk about something, talk about nothing
People thinking they were cool, when they were just bluffin
Catching the sun, making a run
Just chillin’ out, never a doubt
Cannonbals and bellyflops
To us, the fun would never stop
So sweet, so fine
Summer was mine
Ah, those sweet summertime days
Relaxing in the sunny rays
Love grew, we knew it was true
You can feel it in the air
There’s just not a care
So laid-back, that was our style
Being with you made it worth my while
We would whine “I don’t wanna go back to school!”
We wanted to stay here, that’s where we felt cool
The summer days are numbered, they’re drifting by
How quickly time flies
So-long warm sunny rays
Goodbye sweet summertime days
