PIANO INTRO:
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
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
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
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 lack
So catch me if you can, I'm going back
