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 book, no Christmas bells to chime Thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can play the game of life to win I can recall a time When I wasn't ashamed to reach out for a friend Now I think I've got A lot more than just my skipping rome to lend Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide And every day can be A magic carpet ride And I can play hide and seek with my fears And live my days, instead I've come to my knees ♪ Let everyone debate the true reality I'd rather see the world the way it used to be A little bit of freedom is all we lack So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
