Like a Kid Again
Rediscovering Joy: Embracing Life's Playful Moments
Lyrics
Woke on the wrong side of the bed
Starting the day in a negative or unpleasant way
A million details in my head,
Feeling overwhelmed by numerous thoughts and concerns
All tryin to bring me down
External factors attempting to bring the person down
They call this living but I'm not sure,
Questioning if the current way of life is truly fulfilling
The whole thing goes by like a blur
Life passing quickly without clear perception
Wish I could slow it down and do you ever look in your childrens eyes
Expressing a desire to connect with the innocence reflected in children's eyes
To a simpler place in time when we could
Yearning for a simpler and carefree time in the past
Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
Recalling carefree moments of joy and laughter
All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
Emphasizing the role of imagination in shaping one's reality
Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
Reflecting on a time when life felt like a playful game
I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again
Expressing a longing to trade the complexities of adulthood for the simplicity of childhood
When did my innoncence get lost,
Noticing the loss of innocence over time
Where did I lose the girl that thought
Searching for the part of oneself that believed in limitless possibilities
That nothing was too far
Regretting the distancing from a more optimistic perspective
Sometimes it's all so serious,
Acknowledging the weight of adult responsibilities
I'd like to rent a yellow bus and drive into the stars
Fantasizing about escaping reality and embracing whimsy
And turn off the world for a day or two
Desiring a break from the demands of life
Without a single thing to do but maybe,
Contemplating a day free from obligations
Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
Recalling the joy of spinning in circles and laughing
All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
Highlighting the importance of imagination and make-believe
Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
Revisiting the carefree experience of running barefoot in the rain
I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again
Expressing a willingness to trade the challenges of reality for the simplicity of childhood
Walkin on the beach, playing in the sand,
Revisiting playful activities on the beach
Countin all the stars, playing kick the can
Recalling the innocence of counting stars and playing games
Running in the sprinkler until it's almost dark,
Describing the joy of running in sprinklers until dusk
Buying candy bars and putting fireflies in jars
Evoking memories of simple pleasures like buying candy and catching fireflies
Spin in circles til we fall down laughing
Reiterating the desire for carefree laughter and joy
All your days begin and end in make believe and just pretend
Emphasizing the role of imagination and make-believe in daily life
Running barefoot in the rain, oh life was just a game
Revisiting the image of running barefoot in the rain as a symbol of carefree living
I'd trade all this real just to feel, like a kid again
Expressing a longing to trade the challenges of adulthood for the innocence of childhood
Walkin on the beach, playing in the sand,
Reiterating playful activities on the beach as a metaphor for innocence
Countin all the stars, playing kick the can
Recalling the joy of counting stars and playing games
Running in the sprinkler until it's almost dark,
Describing the joy of running in sprinklers until dusk
Buying candy bars and putting fireflies in jars
Evoking memories of simple pleasures like buying candy and catching fireflies
