It seems like only yesterday
When innocence was there
But in this hectic, driven world
Such innocence is rare
A glimpse of Summer wonder
About to turn to Fall
I wish those magic, carefree days
Could come again to all
A loyal friend beside you
A sun-filled day of fun
Not a worry in the world
As gleefully we'd run
Chasing lovely butterflies
Who flew so very high
Angels kissed their pretty wings
Above us in the sky
The wondrous days of childhood
So fleetingly they passed
How could we have ever known
They were never meant to last!
