====================
Queen - Going Back
====================

Words and music by Gerry Goffin and Carole King

I think I'm going back
To the things I learnt so well in my youth
I think I'm returning to
Those days when I was young enough to know the truth
Now there are no games
To only pass the time
No more colouring books
No Christmas bells to chime
But thinking young and growing older is no sin
And I can't play the game of life to win
I can recall a time
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
And now I think I've got
A lot more than just my toys to lend
Now there's more to do
Than watch my sailboat glide
And every day can be
My magic carpet ride
And I can play hide and seek with my fears
And live my days instead of counting my years
Then everyone debates
The true reality
I'd rather see the world
The way it used to be
A little bit of freedom's all we lack
So catch me if you can
I'm going back

 I think I'm going back  
 To the things I learnt so well in my youth  
 I think I'm returning to  
 Those days when I was young enough to know the truth  
 Now there are no games  
 To only pass the time  
 No more colouring books  
 No Christmas bells to chime  
 But thinking young and growing older is no sin  
 And I can't play the game of life to win  
 I can recall a time  
 When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend  
 And now I think I've got  
 A lot more than just my toys to lend  
 Now there's more to do  
 Than watch my sailboat glide  
 And every day can be  
 My magic carpet ride  
 And I can play hide and seek with my fears  
 And live my days instead of counting my years  
 Then everyone debates  
 The true reality  
 I'd rather see the world  
 The way it used to be  
 A little bit of freedom's all we lack  
 So catch me if you can  
 I'm going back
