Sunny skies and fireflies
You smell just like the summertime
A fireside a starry night in June

And I don't mind mosquito bites
My sunburned skin or tired eyes
I played my cards and lost the fight for you

If seasons change the state you're in
From freckled face to pale and thin
Then why on earth would I begin
To try when I wake up again

You cried inside and then you lied
And said that it would be alright
But spring had left and summer died too soon

And I don't find the nursery rhymes
That since you left inside my mind
To help out with the lonely times I knew

And you can sit inside and pine
This love that you might never find
Cause human nature's not so kind to you
And I'll enjoy the summertime I knew
