I think I'm goin' back To the things I knew so well in my youth I think I'm returning to A time when I was young enough to know the truth Now there are no games To simply pass the time No more electric trains 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 afraid to reach out to a friend And now I think I've got A lot more than just a skipping rope to lift And 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 Where everyone debates true reality I'd rather see the world the way it used to be A little bit of freedom is all you lack So catch me if you can I'm goin' back
