Gerry Goffin - Going Back lyrics

I think i'm going 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 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't play the 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 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 And i can play hide and seek with my fears And live my days instead of counting my years Then everyone de s 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 going back
