Lord tell me can’t I go back to times gone by;
See I miss my days as a child;
I was always told to enjoy them but nobody ever told me why;
So I just wished to be a man in this place called life;
I’ve been a man for quite a while;
It’s harder than I ever thought and it snatched away my smile;
Daily it leaves tears in my eyes;
And serves as a reminder of how I miss my days as an innocent child;
Lord tell me is there no way for me to turn back the hands of time;
I don’t want to be this man I always wanted to be anymore;
I’m wiser now, can you take me back to times before;
That I took for granted, Lord I didn’t have a clue, I didn’t know;
That life would snatch the life from my soul;
Why can’t we be born and live life as an adult and end up as a child;
Why did I take for granted the best times;
Now I wish to relive them again with a renewed mind;
How I’d do things so much different if I had the chance;
I’d never even break a single heart;
I’d make count every day as if it were my last;
Lord tell me is there no way You can send me back;
I’d trade what I have right now for a second chance;
I’m in the present but my heart misses the past;
Lord tell me why I can’t go back;
I wish I never wished to be a grown up man
