I think I'm going back
|
To the thing I learned so well in my youth
|
I think I'm returning to
|
All 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 the time when
|
I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
|
And 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 everyday can be my magic paradise
|
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 my world the way it used to be
|
A little bit of courage is all we lack
|
So catch me if you can 'cause I'm going back
|
|
I'm going back
|
Not just sitting, walking away
|
Yes, I'm going back
|
Going back to my youth
|
Come on, catch me 'cause I'm going back
|
I'm going back
|
