Think I'm goin' 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 games to only pass the time

No more electric trains, no more trees to climb

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

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

A little bit of courage is all we lack

So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
