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 electric trains, no more trees to climb
|
Thinking young and growing older is no sin
|
And I can play the game of life to win
|
|
I can recall a time
|
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
|
Now I think
|
I've got a lot more than just my toys to lend
|
Now there's more to do
|
Than watch my sailboat glide
|
And every day can be
|
My magic carpet ride
|
|
A little bit of courage is all we lack
|
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
|
