I think I'm goin' back
To the things
I learned 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 play
The game of life to win
I can recall the time
When I wasn't ashamed
To reach out to a friend
And now I think I've got
A lot more than
A skipping rope to lend
Now there's more to do
Than watch my sailboat glide
And everyday 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
Let everyone debate 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 goin' back

Review about Goin' Back Memories of this song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/13/2008
My friend died recently at the age of 59.
At her funeral,her casket was surrounded by pall-bearers bowing their heads in respect,whilst the song played.It was so sad but beautiful too.
RIP Sheila
Great song | Reviewer: Iwan | 12/9/2007
I also prefer Freddie's version as Larry Lurex, but also the Springfield-version, the Byrds version and the Johnny Logan version are great!
The text is so timeless, beautiful
