That was summer
Remember that time
you were so excited to go to cricket
To play in the Central South Island cricket tournament
And play hard teams and get challenged
Like you never had been before?
That was summer.
Remember that time
You went out to face some of the fastest bowlers
but you were so excited
And once you got out you were a bit nervous because
You didn’t want a golden duck
To let your team down?
That was summer.
Remember that time
You went out to bowl and tried to get
Some wickets for your team to try to win the game
But your shoes kept slipping because you
Didn’t have any grip?
That was summer.
