PIANO INTRO:
VERSE:
I think I'm going back
To the things I learnt so well
In my youth
I think I'm returning to
Those days when I was young enough
To know the truth
CHORUS:
Now there are no games to only pass the time
No more colouring 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
VERSE:
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
CHORUS:
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
INSTRUMENTAL:
CHORUS:
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 lack
So catch me if you can, I'm going back
