Chasing down the hill
Back when time stood still
Felt the wind in our hair
Days we had no care
Cartwheels on the grass
Running back to class
Muddy knees rosy cheeks
Days rolled into weeks
Back in those days
Back in those days
Playing chase jump the rope
Futures filled with hope
Splashing paddling pool
Just to keep us cool
In the dress up box
Sparkling cloaks gowns and frocks
You're the king I'm the queen
Living our childhood dream
Back in those days
Back in those days
Swinging we would try
Touch our feet on the sky
Spinning on roundabouts
Parks echoed with our shouts
Midnight feasts by torchlight
Staying up all night
Laughing with our friends
Like time never ends
Back in those days
Back in those days
Garden games sunny days
Under mum's loving gaze
Singing songs acting plays
Now just a misty haze
Paddling in the stream
Now seems just like a dream
Dirty face messy hair
You just don't care
Back in those days
Back in those days
Splashing in the sea
Jumping waves with glee
The sun always shone
In those days now gone
Magic snowmen could fly
Across a Christmas sky
Had no doubts no fears
In our younger years
Back in those days
Back in those days
All grown up now we've gone
Left behind everyone
Walked our separate ways
Just memories of those days
