Those Summer Nights

Good music playing in my ear, Its got me in a mood to write Nights like this I just lay here and think Often about those summer nights I remember every little thing Just young girls trying to be grown Thought every guy was 'the one' for us Sat waiting by the phone Little bitty bikinis, sitting by the pool Just wishing a guy would sit right beside us Because getting the hottie made us 'cool' Sneaking out way past curfew There wasn't a rule we didn't break "Omg, he told me he loved me!!" Our hearts were so easy to take Looking back, reminiscing Smiling at every thought We never gave up on chasing the fun Even if we did get caught A lot has changed throughout the years From girls we now are women The bond we have will never be broken Even tho our lives are completely different There might be miles between us, Maybe even right next door Telling each other painful truths But that's what friends are for Tears have dropped on shoulder after shoulder Wiped away by the same ol' hands After every heartbreak and all the pain Together well always stand There came a time when I had to wake up, Reality hit me so hard I knew I could no longer be the kid I could no longer play that part Being mommy is my life now Being a friend falls in right behind it Ill never regret a moment spent with my girls They're all memories ill never forget I know God purposely intertwined our lives I believe everything happens for a reason Ill never let go of the sisters He gave me Til the day that I stop breathing We've grown into adults now We'll eventually go our seperate ways Always going to have each other Thru all the happiness and the pain I often go back to those summer nights Thinking "how stupid could we be?" But we were just kids out breaking the rules When life was easy and care free!
