Childhood Dreams

Verse 1

I remember days of laughter and play

Chasing dreams, in a world of disarray

I was a superhero, with powers so grand

Saving the world, with a wave of my hand

Pre-chorus

But now I'm grown, with worries and fears

The magic's gone, and the dreams disappear

I wish I were a child again

With a heart full of wonder, and a soul that can pretend

Chorus

I wish I were a child again

With the world at my feet, and the sun on my skin

I'd run and I'd play, and I'd dream all day

I wish I were a child again, with a heart full of joy and play

Verse 2

I'd build with blocks, and I'd draw with crayons

I'd create a world, where anything was possible, and the fun never faded

I'd be a pirate, or a spaceman too

With a imagination, that knew no bounds, and a heart that was true

Pre-Chorus

But now I'm grown, with responsibilities and stress

The world's a different place, and the magic's repressed

I wish I were a child again

With a heart full of wonder, and a soul that can pretend

Chorus

I wish I were a child again

With the world at my feet, and the sun on my skin

I'd run and I'd play, and I'd dream all day

I wish I were a child again, with a heart full of joy and play

Bridge

Maybe someday, I'll find my way back

To the wonder, and the magic, of a child's heart

And I'll remember, the dreams I used to chase

And I'll smile, knowing that the magic never fades

Chorus

I wish I were a child again

With the world at my feet, and the sun on my skin

I'd run and I'd play, and I'd dream all day

I wish I were a child again, with a heart full of joy and play.
