Freshly cut grass drifts through the lingering warmth of the summer A reminder of days, time was unburdened, elusive and tender An uncharted adventure

Where the future was a distant echo And everything made us giggle When laughter rang true The promise of wonder and innocent youth

A fragrance of loss, a delicate whisper of childhood memories A vanishing era, before the unreachable tethered our dreams Before responsibilities

Where the future was a distant echo And everything made us giggle When laughter rang true The promise of wonder and innocent youth

With sunlit afternoons and never ending days Bike rides on slopes and secret hideaways With Teddy Bear friends and race car collecting Colorful blankets and night time story telling

Where the future was a distant echo And everything made us giggle When laughter rang true Before responsibilities dampened our youth
