Going Back

Larry Lurex

I think I'm going 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

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't play the 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 every day 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

Then everyone de s

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.
