Lyrics
The sun is out but the blinds are closed, only ten but I had control of everything around me.
Heard a song, made it my anthem, heard a beat, started dancing, with everyone following me.
Verse 1
Five years younger looking up to me, like I was a star but in reality, I was just a kid enjoying her free time,
I was just a…
Just a kid in the summer, can it get any better, when the times were as good as the weather, we were helping each other, like a sister and brother, but I know it won’t last forever, to be a kid in the summer, (oooh), to be a kid in the summer, (ooooooh)
Weekend away it was my first time, I would make new friends, have good laughs and good cries, sang at the fire and saw shooting stars, everywhere around me.
I never knew it was possible to have such a good time, saw and heard things that will never leave my mind, had many beautiful experiences in my life, but this one will stick with me.
Verse 2
We were all together like a family, remember making bracelets along with memories, I’m so glad I was able to have some time to be, I’m so glad I was.
Just a kid in the summer, can it get any better, when the times were as good as the weather.
We were helping each other, like a sister and brother, oh I know it won’t last forever, to be a kid in the summer, (ooh), to be a kid in the summer, (oooooh).
Please I don’t wanna leave, I wanna hold on to these memories, I’m begging you, don’t wanna leave, I wanna hold on to these memories.
I know it won’t last forever, to be a kid in the summer, it’s so good it can’t get any better.
So enjoy the moment, no matter the weather, because we’re only getting older. Make the best of your time being.
Just a kid in the summer…
