Going BackI think I'm going backTo 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 |
