(Verse I)
The hands of time
Have made me blind
Taken away moments
That I can’t rewind
No cellphones, no internet
No worries, and no regrets
I miss those days, in so many ways
(Chorus)
I just want to go back
Back to a simpler time
Back when everything was new
Back when I had an open mind
Before all the madness, before all the sinning
I just want to go back, go back to the beginning
(Verse II)
Getting older isn’t
All it’s made to be
Everyday a ritual
Of how to make money
No excitement, no learning
No living, only burning
Memories remain, of youth slipping away
(Chorus)
I just want to go back
Back to a simpler time
Back when everything was new
Back when I had an open mind
Before all the madness, before all the sinning
I just want to go back, go back to the beginning
(Bridge)
In my sleep
It will always be a part of me
This I keep
Always near the heart of me
In my sleep
It will always be a part of me
This I keep
Always near the heart of me
(Chorus)
