When I was young, I used to play
On the sand by the bay
What I've got now I'd give it all away
Just to have some funLife was all, I had a ship
And sailed it to the end
Why can't I go there again?Take me back to then
When life was mellow
Where we had golden sunTake me back, I said
I can't continue
With the world I'm in, oh
Playing in the park
Every afternoon
I've grown old, far too soonSomeone please tell me why
I can't be made to see
What good's left in my life
Is this the end of me?There's a tear for all the dreams
That I left behind
They'll always be on my mindTake me back to then
When life was mellow
Where we had golden sunTake me back, I said
I can't continue
With the world I'm in
Take me back to then
When life was mellow
Where we had golden sunTake me back, I said
I can't continue
With the world I'm in
