(Verse 1)
The sun gets in my eyes
How my life has passed by
Longing for days past
Innocent time recast

(Chorus)
A child's eye summer lasted forever
Each day a new and bold endeavor
As a teen growing up however
The years began to blend and sever
In this fading light, dreams die
Beneath a fast and frantic sky
The haggard, disillusioned I
Just watches all the time fly by

(Verse 2)
Remember streets that had no end
Simple times spent with a friend
The world you couldn't comprehend
Now life blurs and blends

(Pre-Chorus)
The clock ticks slow when you are small
One summer feels a century long
But the pendulum starts to fall...

(Chorus)
A child's eye summer lasted forever
Each day a new and bold endeavor
As a teen growing up however
The years began to blend and sever
In this fading light, dreams die
Beneath a fast and frantic sky
The haggard, disillusioned I
Just watches all the time fly by

(Bridge)
And now the sun gets in my eyes
Not with warmth, but with surprise
At the cost of compromise
And the truth in all the lies
I'd give all my tomorrows
To borrow one of those
Endless, sweet, and slow sorrows

(Final Chorus)
A child's eye summer lasted forever 
Each day a new and bold endeavor 
As a teen growing up however 
The years began to blend and sever 
In this fading light, dreams die
Beneath a fast and frantic sky 
The haggard, disillusioned I 
Just watches all the time fly by

(Outro)
Wondering why 
As time flies by 
The sun gets in my eyes 
How my life has passed by
