What I liked were the Summer days

What I liked were the Summer days

When I could wear a loose pair of shorts

With a short sleeve shirt pulled out

Sneakers or dock shoes, no socks

Now I wear two shirts every day

Because the office is ice cold

I have to tuck the shirts in to

Long pants because appearance counts

We got up early every morning

Either going to the gym or Vivian

Wanted to catch an earlier train

So then I could have coffee and surf

Now we get up early every morning

Still go to the gym and catch earlier trains

But I have to head to the office

Straight from the train station

I had time to walk to the corner

With Evan, chitchat about politics

Geeky stuff, a new fish tank or

Just think to myself about whatever

Now I’m lucky to get one morning walk

On the weekend, the talk is not as fresh,

People at the office are nice but not the same

Coffee at the office is nowhere near as good
