I think I'm goin' back |
|
To the things |
|
I learned so well |
|
In my youth |
|
I think I'm returning to |
|
Those days |
|
When I was young enough |
|
To know the truth |
|
Now there are no games |
|
To only pass the time |
|
No more colouring books |
|
No Christmas bells to chime |
|
But thinking young |
|
And growing older |
|
Is no sin |
|
And I can play |
|
The game of life to win |
|
I can recall the time |
|
When I wasn't ashamed |
|
To reach out to a friend |
|
And now I think I've got |
|
A lot more than |
|
A skipping rope to lend |
|
Now there's more to do |
|
Than watch my sailboat glide |
|
And everyday can be |
|
My magic carpet ride |
|
And I can play hide and seek with my fears |
|
And live my days instead of counting my years |
|
Let everyone debate the true reality |
|
I'd rather see the world the way it used to be |
|
A little bit of freedom's |
|
All we lack |
|
So catch me if you can |
|
I'm goin' back |
