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 coloring 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 |
