Childlike
I dance in the rain
I splash in all the puddles,
I climb trees, so as to be one with nature
I ride my bike, through forests weaving in and out of trees,
I just get so out of breath, that I can hardly breathe.
I play football in the park with my son
Jumpers for goalposts we have so much fun,
Up at the crack of dawn, until the day is done
And it takes me back to when I was young,
Yes it takes me back, being childlike is so much better
Then being grown up, with all the weight of expectation.
So when you get the chance take it, grab it with both hands,
When everything is on top of you
Just let it all go
And think of all the things you loved when you were young
And recreate them, with nothing on your mind except freedom,
Clear your mind of all the stress in your life,
Just have some fun and just go wild,
Find that child in you, find that innocence you once knew
And just let go.
