Sometimes I think about... Life was so simple back then We'd run around no shoes Just some cane field blues No thought to what was round the bend Sheets filled with sand And secrets in the banyan Sometimes I wonder if it's all a dream Another green flash playing tricks on me But i know that deep inside it's still alive Let me take you back and you'll see Remember getting lost and found Your whole world inside a one-road town Set your mind at ease to the tropical breeze And Uncle playing slack key
We used to spend all day at the beach Shorebreak, fishing and sunburnt cheeks Take me back take me back take me back Take me back to you You know that I Try not to live in the past But when my mind starts to run then it sure runs fast Clear skies and that green green gra** In the valley of the kings On that old rope swing And if you climb up in the tallest tree Get a quick glimpse of what the day might be Then you'll know that deep inside I'm still alive So whenever you're lost at sea
