Go Back

Oh what I'd give
to go back to
the days of being
a kid

When the worst things that came were
bad dreams and
skinned knees.

To go back to the
days of being
care free.

Oh how I yearn
to be a small child,
where nature was
my friend and that's
where I learned

From the sun,
and the earth of
the animals and sounds

There were so many
great things
that I found

But what would I
miss about growing
up?

Traveling the world,
Seeing the sights,
Finding love, true love
and starting a family

Growing old with
my better half,
the one that
completes me

But if I could go back
for just a short time
I think I find,
it would all be
worth while.
