When I was a young boy
I wanted to be a man
But now that I am older
I wanna go back again
When I would close my eyes and dream
Imagining I could do anything
There was no common sense
We knew no consequence
All that we had was faith and make believe
When we were innocent
It comes when you least expect it
The pain of reality
And though joy comes with the morning
Life's still not what it used to be
When I would close my eyes and dream
Imagining I could do anything
There was no common sense
We knew no consequence
All that we had was faith and make believe
When we were innocent
Remember days when we would play
Out in the streets with no worries
We were just kids that lived for adventure
But where's the adventure now
Sometimes I close my eyes and dream
Imagining I could do anything
Let's forget common sense
Fear not the consequence
When all we had was faith and make believe
We were so free
When we were innocent
