  • Woke on the wrong side of the bed
    A million details in my head,
    All tryin to bring me down
    They call this living but I'm not sure,
    The whole thing goes by like a blur
    Wish I could slow it down and do you ever look in your childrens eyes
    To a simpler place in time when we could

    Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
    All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
    Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
    I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again

    When did my innoncence get lost,
    Where did I lose the girl that thought
    That nothing was too far
    Sometimes it's all so serious,
    I'd like to rent a yellow bus and drive into the stars
    And turn off the world for a day or two
    Without a single thing to do but maybe,

    Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
    All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
    Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
    I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again

    Walkin on the beach, playing in the sand,
    Countin all the stars, playing kick the can
    Running in the sprinkler until it's almost dark,
    Buying candy bars and putting fireflies in jars

    Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
    All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
    Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
    I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again

    Walkin on the beach, playing in the sand,
    Countin all the stars, playing kick the can
    Running in the sprinkler until it's almost dark,
    Buying candy bars and putting fireflies in jars Writer/s: Adrienne J Follese, Keith Follesse, Tamara Janine Hyler
