Innocence

I remember those long summer days Running wild, chasing our dreams away Splashes in the sprinkler, climbing up the tree Oh, the freedom that childhood brought me

Those childhood memories, they never fade away A time of innocence, a time of play The sound of laughter, the taste of popsicle sticks Those childhood memories we never picked

Playing hide and seek in the dark Camping out in the backyard Building forts and catching fireflies Those were the days, oh, how they fly

Those childhood memories, they never fade away A time of innocence, a time of play The sound of laughter, the taste of popsicle sticks Those childhood memories we never picked

Now I'm grown up and the world is big But those memories, they still give me a lift When I'm feeling down, I close my eyes And I'm back in those carefree days of childhood skies

Those childhood memories, they never fade away A time of innocence, a time of play The sound of laughter, the taste of blood on my lips Those childhood memories we never picked

It was a summer day in July The sun was shining on the blue sky We rode our bikes and ran outside Our laughter echoed through the night

Those childhood memories They stay with us forever The simple joys and silly endeavours The innocence of youth remains

We played tag and hide and seek Climbed trees and built forts out of sheets We ate sorbets and ice cream cones Our imaginations ran wild in a world we called our own

Those childhood memories They stay with us forever The simple joys and silly games The innocence of youth remains

We may grow older, but we never forget The magic of those carefree days When the world was our playground And nothing could stop us from laying our plans

Those childhood memories They stay with us forever The simple joys and silly games The innocence of youth remains
