Back Then
I want to go back
Back to when I was slim
and trimmed
And all I knew was fun
fun fun!
Back to when I had no
worries and loved many
stories
Back to when no one told
me my flaws
And I had no idea I was
so small and short!
Back to when running a
mile didnt seem like a
chore
I want to go back then
I want to go back
Back to when school
wasnt a task
When it hardly mattered
if you read
When it was like putting
through the hole of a
pin,a thread
Back to those delicious
yam porridge
That got you spending
with all pleasure and
courage
Back to those dance
routines
That had me feeling like I
was a part of something
Back to building those
sand castles
And driving mum crazy
trying to make waffles
I want to go back then
