the byrds - goin' back lyrics
written by carole king and gerry goffin
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 p-ss the time
no more electric trains
no more trees to climb
but thinking young and growing older is no sin
and i can’t play the game of life to win
i can recall a time
when i wasn’t ashamed to reach out to a friend
now i think i’ve got
a lot more than just my toys to lend
now there’s more to do
than watch my sailboat glide
but every day can be
a magic carpet ride
a little bit of courage is all we lack
so catch me if you can, i’m goin’ back
la la la la la, etc.
now there’s more to do
than watch my sailboat glide
but every day can be
a magic carpet ride
a little bit of courage is all we lack
so catch me if you can, i’m goin’ back
la la la la, etc.
