goin' back
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 books No Christmas bells to chime But 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 to a friend And now I think I've got A lot more than a skipping rope to lift  Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide And everyday 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'd rather see the world the way it used to be A little bit of freedom's all we're lack So catch me if you can I'm goin' back
