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 pa** the time No more colouring books No Christmas bells to chime But thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can the game of life to win I can recall a 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 mend
Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide And every day 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 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 I'm goin' back, I'm goin' back, goin' back, goin' back, goin' back
