Will Slater - Take Me Back Lyrics

I remember back when we were kids
Them days at the creek never did
Keep us busy long enough

Muddy hands and July air
Along with soaking wet hair
Left us without a care to think of

Momma'd have our dinner made
And without even saying thanks
We'd go on in and fill our stomachs up

Then we'd lay our little heads to rest
Ready to wake up again
And do it all over just for fun

When we were young
Time would fly
Oh how our lives
Flashed before our eyes

Take me back
To innocence
Take me back
To when we were kids

And I'd pay every penny I've ever made
To go back to those glory days
Of building forts out in the woods

They'd fall apart just like we did
As time took it's toll on them
Leaving them brittle and old

When we were young
Time would fly
Oh how our lives
Have flashed before our eyes

Take me back
To innocence
Take me back
To when we were kids

Now with each year comes a new vice
Pulling the light from our eyes
Taking us further from our home

While dark liquor and nicotine
Serve to us as gasoline
To take us back to when we were young

When we were young
Time would fly
Oh how our lives
Flashed before our eyes

Take me back
To innocence
Take me back
To when we were kids

Take me back
To when we were kids
