Back To The Innocence
Journey Through Time: Rediscovering the Magic of Youth in 'Back To The Innocence'
Lyrics
Standing outside my playground
Reflecting on the past, the speaker is outside the metaphorical playground of innocence.
How I love to hear the sounds
The speaker cherishes the memories and sounds associated with innocence.
Ringing hope the child the know
Hope resonates, emphasizing the knowledge and purity of a child's understanding.
How to let the magic out, l'd be there
Expressing a desire to rediscover the ability to experience and share magic.
Through the endless summers
Recalling carefree and seemingly limitless summers of youth.
Seemed like Life was ours to taste
A time when life felt open and full of possibilities.
Golden years before the fears
Reference to a golden period before the introduction of fears and challenges.
I've seen ghosts of days gone by
Seeing remnants or memories of past days, possibly haunted by nostalgia.
Telling me dreams don't die
Receiving advice from the past, suggesting that dreams should persist despite challenges.
Like chusing a fly ball in center field
Metaphorically likening life choices to catching a fly ball, emphasizing precision and skill.
And holding hands at a high school dance
Recalling the simplicity and joy of holding hands at a high school dance.
I'm drifting in time and it's taking me
Feeling a sense of temporal drift, being carried back through time.
Back to the innocence
Expressing a desire to return to a state of innocence.
Back to the innocence
Repetition for emphasis, underlining the importance of returning to innocence.
These days I lose my vision
Noting a loss of clarity or perspective in the present.
And I feel my years of age
Feeling the weight of accumulated years, acknowledging the passage of time.
And through denial forget my smile
Suffering from a sense of denial and forgetting the ability to smile.
The cruel games we play
Commenting on the negative and deceptive aspects of grown-up games.
I know the child deep inside me
Acknowledging the enduring presence of the child within, despite external changes.
Is forever in my heart
The inner child remains a constant and cherished part of the speaker's identity.
And now pray a chance one day
Expressing a hope for the opportunity to become a parent and pass on blessings.
To have children of my own
Aspiring to share the experiences and joys of innocence with one's own children.
Share the blessing I have known
Desiring to pass on the positive aspects of life to future generations.
