I knew that it was summer when we packed our car
Didn't really matter if we went so far
On our august adventure
We build ourselves a tent
Sitting by the fire in my sleeping bag
Scary stories giving me a heart attack
Summertime was endless
Until it came and went
I wished that everyday was now or never
Wished that every night would last forever
Wished that I could stay a little bit longer
Watching the summer slipping away
I knew that it was summer when I said goodbye
Finally allowed to spread my wings and fly
Start my own adventure
Until my cash was spend
One look at the ocean and she stole my heart
We shared a sleeping bag till it fell apart
Summer love was endless
Until it came and went
I wished that everyday was now or never
Wished that every night would last forever
Wished that I could stay a little bit longer
Watching the summer slipping away
Watching the summer slipping away
They know that it is summer when we pack the car
It doesn't really matter if we drive so far
On our family adventure
We build ourselves a tent
The kids are by the fire in their sleeping bag
Why is everybody growing up so fast
Childhood dreams are endless
Until they have to end
I wished that everyday was now or never
Wished that every night would last forever
Wished that I could stay a little bit longer
Watching the summer slipping away
Watching the summer slipping away
Watching the summer slipping away
Watching the summer slipping away
