Sometimes I wish I'd have a time-machine
I would press the button and I'd be a child again
in my little northern hometown
where the good old seawind blew
where we played our games in the yellow sand
where we always had a lot of important things to do
where we thought this kind of life would never end
There was so much going on
and the world was full of sensations
and ev'ry single day had a hundred fantastic situations
riding on a sunbeam, running through the rain
I'd like to be a child again
I close my eyes - I see pictures of memory
I was playin' in a garden
where the flowers were even taller than me
where I met that little boy - my first love
he said he would be a superstar
we were so sure that we would marry
but then he changed his mind
and he felt in love with racing-cars
There was so much going on
and the world was full of sensations
and ev'ry single day had a hundred fantastic situations
riding on a sunbeam, running through the rain
I'd like to be a child again
