Goin' Back

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 hidе-and-seek with my fears

And live my days, instead of counting my yеars

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 I lack

So catch me if you can...

I'm goin' – back
