Take Me Back
Take me back to when I was free
Growing up took from me everything
Just give me back the happy key
To climb a tree or scrape our knee
To be the highest on the swing
Take me back to when I was free
Growing up takes the fun that's free
It will fight till it pulls the string
Just give me back the happy key
Watching loved ones go hurts to a degree
It's a part of getting old, the whole thing
Take me back to when I was free
Getting older ends the wild spree
You watch things pass and leave, it'll sting
Just give me back the happy key
You'll miss your childhood like you do the tree
The pain will fly at you full swing
Take me back to when I was free
Just give me back the happy key
